Getting started
This section explains how to access for the first time an HMP100 unit from a PC
using the RJ-45 Ethernet interface. This step is required to access the HMP100
administration HTTP server or to publish content on a HMP100 unit.
Requirements:
One of the following configurations
o
PC with RJ-45 10/100/1000 Ethernet interface and an Ethernet cable.
o
PC with RJ-45 10/100 Ethernet interface and an Ethernet crossover cable.

Guide
:
If you have an older version of the HMP100 firmware (below 2.1), please use the
alternate guide described below:
1.
Connect the PC
, through the switch depending on the chosen setup, to the
HMP100 unit following one of the above schemes.
2.
Power up the PC
and switch (if applicable).
3.
Power up the HMP100 unit.
(Note that the HMP100 unit does not need to be
connected to a display: allow about 1mn for the HMP100 to boot up, you will see
the green light blinking once per second).
4.
Configure
the network on your PC to use DHCP.
Note that your PC might indicate the only limited network connectivity is
available. This will not prevent you from connecting to the HMP100.
