Installing the Access Gateway
Establishing the Start Up Configuration
The CLI allows you to administer the Access Gateway’s start-up configuration settings.
When establishing the start-up configuration for a new installation, you are connected to
the Access Gateway via a direct serial connection (you do not have remote access
capability because the Access Gateway is not yet configured or connected to a network).
Once the installation is complete (see
system is successfully configured, you will have the additional options of managing the
Access Gateway remotely from the system’s Web Management Interface, an SNMP client
manager of your choice, or a simple Telnet interface.
The startup configuration must be established before connecting the Access Gateway to a customer’s network.
The “startup” configuration settings include:
Assigning Login User Names and Passwords
–
You must assign a unique login user name and
password that enables you to administer and manage the Access Gateway securely.
User names and passwords are case-sensitive.
Setting the SNMP Parameters (optional)
–
The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
parameters must be established before you can use an SNMP client (for example, HP OpenView) to
manage and monitor the Access Gateway remotely.
Enabling the Logging Options (recommended)
–
Servers must be assigned and set up if you want to
create system and AAA (billing) log files, and retrieve error messages generated by the Access
Gateway.
Assigning the Location Information and IP Addresses (
Connecting the Access Gateway to the
):
Assigning the Network Interface IP Address -
This is the public IP address that allows
administrators and subscribers to see the Access Gateway on the network. Use this address
when you need to make a network connection with the Access Gateway.
Assigning the Subnet Mask
– The subnet mask defines the number of IP addresses that are
available on the routed subnet where the Access Gateway is located.
Assigning the Default Gateway IP Address
– This is the IP address of the router that the
Access Gateway uses to transmit data to the Internet.
Assigning Login User Names and Passwords
When you initially powered up the Access Gateway and logged in to the Management Interface, the default
login user name and password you used was “admin.” The Access Gateway allows you to define 2 concurrent
access levels to differentiate between managers and operators, where managers are permitted
read/write
access
and operators are restricted to
read
access only. Once the logins have been assigned, managers have the ability
to perform all write commands (
Submit
,
Reset
,
Reboot
,
Add
,
Delete
, etc.), but operators cannot change any
system settings. When Administration Concurrency is enabled, one manager and three operators can access
the Access Gateway at any one time (the default setting for this feature is “disabled”).
