See the
Stealthwatch x2xx Series Hardware (with Data Store) Appliance

Appendix A. Installation Preparation

For the first time only that you access System Configuration, the system
takes you into First Time Setup, which automatically walks you through
the initial appliance configuration process.
After you choose to configure your SMC or Flow Collector for use with a

this only if you plan to deploy a Data Store to your network.

Next, in a web browser, navigate to the IP address that you assigned to the
management port. Use Appliance Setup Tool to perform additional configuration,
including assignment of the
admin
user password (and
root
and
sysadmin
user passwords if you did not assign them during System Configuration),
Stealthwatch domain configuration, other network configuration, DNS and
NTP settings, and installing Central Management on the SMC. See the
Stealthwatch System Configuration Guide
or
for more information on using Appliance Setup Tool.
3.
Last, update your SMC to the latest version and patch. See the
for
more information on updating to the current version, and
for more
information on patch updates.
After you update your SMC, deploy and configure your Data Nodes, as described
in the next section.
Data Store Initial Deployment and Configuration
After you deploy your SMC, deploy and configure your Data Node appliances. When
deploying your Data Nodes and connecting them to your network, review
