Quick Start Guide
Setting Up the Appliance using the Console
Note:
Use a serial console instead of an SSH connection. Network configuration changes can
disconnect an SSH connection during this procedure. In all circumstances, a serial connection
is maintained.
3.
In the terminal program, log in as user
root
with password
logapp
.
a.
If this is the first time you are setting up the Appliance, change the default password
to another password:
>
passwd root
b.
Follow the prompts, and be sure to make a note of the change. Do this for both the
CLI and shell logins.
Once logged in, you are automatically set to read/write mode. There is no read-only
console login.

Configure the network settings:
a.
Set the Appliance IP address and interface network settings:
# set ip
IP-address
subnet-mask

bond0
or

Example:
set ip 10.9.3.250 255.255.255.0 10.9.3.1 eth0
b.
Set the DNS server IP address:
# set dns
DNS-IP-address
Example:
set dns 10.1.1.5
