Figure 4-1. (A) PC, (B) Cat 5 Ethernet, and (C) Maintenance Access Panel
The LD Platform core is preset and tested on a Class-C network (netmask for all ports
255.255.255.0). The Maintenance Ethernet port is set to IP address 1.2.3.4 and the wireless IP
comes set with an AP-based ("managed") SSID of “Wireless Network”, unsecured. Consult
with your network systems administrator before modifying these network details through the
SetNetGo OS.
The User LAN port is set to IP address 10.10.10.10.
Refer to the
FLOW Core User's Guide
.
The Maintenance Ethernet port is on the left side of the platform, under the small access panel
at the upper-right corner of the platform. (The joystick port is also there.) The access panel is
held in place with a push-push latch, and retained by a lanyard. See Figure 10-3. This is
internally connected to the Ethernet port located on the rear side of the LD Platform core in the
payload bay.
The Maintenance Ethernet port is permanently set to IP address 1.2.3.4, with a netmask of
255.255.255.0, for direct, wired access to the onboard systems. Accordingly, when accessing the
port, manually set the offboard computer’s Ethernet to an IP 1.2.3.x, where x is any number 1
through 254 except 4, and with a netmask of 255.255.255.0. No special DNS or gateway set-
tings are needed.
Attach a pass-through or cross-over CAT5 (or better) Ethernet cable between the PC and the
Maintenance Ethernet port of the platform. The platform Ethernet is Auto-MDIX, and will
detect the type of cable you are using.
