Using Telnet
The iMediaChassis/20 supports Telnet for remote configuration. Assign the
iMediaChassis/20 an IP address BEFORE using a Telnet session (see the section on
assigning TCP/IP information). All configuration that can be done via the serial port
can also be performed using Telnet. Use only one Telnet session at a time. Do not
use an RS-232 serial session and a Telnet session at the same time.
About DHCP
The DHCP client is disabled by default and the management module is assigned a
default IP Address of 10.10.10.10. If a DHCP server is present on the network and
DHCP is enabled, the DHCP client will initiate a dialogue with the server during the
boot up sequence. The server will then issue an IP address to the iMediaChassis/20.
Once the new IP address is received, the iMediaChassis/20 will reboot so that the
new IP address will take effect. See the About Serial Port Configuration section for
Enable/Disable information. If there is no DHCP server on the network, use iConfig
or serial configuration to manually set the IP addresses.
When DHCP is enabled, the default IP address (10.10.10.10) or the IP address
assigned, is saved. When DHCP is disabled, the saved IP address will be reinstated
and the iMediaChassis/20 will reboot.
DHCP servers give out lease times: devices renew their leases based on the
administrator-specified time. If the iMediaChassis/20 cannot renew its lease, and the
lease expires, the iMediaChassis/20 will be given the IP address 10.10.10.10 and
reboot.
About iConfig
iConfig is an in-band configuration utility (in iView²) that lets users quickly and easily
complete the first stages of SNMP configuration for SNMP-manageable devices.
iConfig can set the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway as well as define the
community strings and SNMP traps.
In addition to the above functions, iConfig offers an authorized IP address system and
access restriction to MIB groups supported by manageable devices. These extra
layers of security are purely optional and do not affect SNMP compatibility.
The iConfig utility can also be used to upload new versions of the system software
and new MIB information. It also offers diagnostic capabilities for faster resolution of
technical support issues. The default user ID for both iConfig and Telnet is:
User: admin / Password: admin
