• Through a web browser.
A standard web browser running on a standalone computer (also referred to as the
management workstation ) can be used to access the cOS Core Web Interface . This provides an
intuitive graphical interface for cOS Core management. When this interface is accessed for
the first time, a
setup wizard runs automatically to guide a new user through key setup steps.
The wizard can be closed if the administrator wishes to go directly to the Web Interface to
perform setup manually.
The wizard is recommended for its simplification of initial setup and is described in detail in
Section 3.2, “Web Interface and Wizard Setup” . The wizard assumes that connection to the
public Internet is one of tasks to be performed and has a step for this.
• Through a terminal console using CLI commands.
Alternatively, the setup process can be performed using console CLI commands and this is
described in
Section 3.4, “CLI Setup” . The CLI allows step by step control of setup and should
be used by administrators who fully understand both the CLI and setup process.
CLI access is possible in one of two ways:
i. CLI access can be remote, across a network to a physical Ethernet interface. This is a
similar to the connection used with the Web Interface and is also done using the default
management interface after powering up for the first time.
ii. Alternatively, CLI access can be through console emulation software running on a
Windows based computer connected directly to the micro-USB port on the E7 hardware.
Direct console connection is described in
Section 2.4, “Micro-USB Console Port
Connection” . For first generation E7 models with an RJ45 serial port, direct console
connection is described in Section 2.3, “RJ45 Console Port Connection” .
Network Connection Setup
For setup using the Web Interface via a web browser or the CLI via SSH, it is necessary to connect
an Ethernet interface on an external workstation computer to the default Ethernet interface on
the E7. The illustration below show this being done via a switch.
