Configuring the A-Series Tape Drive
A-Series tape drives have a default IP configured to 10.10.10.10 and can be accessed at that
address through any Web browser or FTP client.
Complete instructions for configuring any computer to communicate with A-Series
systems and for changing A-Series IP addresses may be found in the
A-Series FTP File Server
User’s Guide
(81-81800).
To access the drive, type in the IP address of the drive (
http://10.10.10.10
) in the address
line of any browser.
The Java™ Plug-in
0
The only software required on your system is a browser and the
Java Plug-in
. The
Java
Plug-in
is the virtual machine software that allows the execution of Java applets.
The Java FTP client needs the Java Virtual Machine to run. This
Java Plug-in
is provided
by Sun Microsystems.
The Java FTP client will install immediately. When you load the Java FTP client for the
first time, a display window may ask you to download and install the Java plug-in. If you
need that plug-in you can just follow the instructions on the screen or go to
www.java.com
to download it.
If you have
Java Plug-in
version 1.5 or later or the
Java Runtime Environment
version 1.5 or
later installed on your computer, you should not need to download new software. The
plug-in should activate on your Web browser automatically once installed. For
Mac OS® X, the supported JRE version is 1.4.2 and later.
Note:
If you require additional assistance when changing IP settings, you may
need to consult either your network administrator or an authority on IP
policies and standards.
Caution:
Any change of the IP address could result in the loss of the device;
always double-check that the IP number is entered correctly.
