Mounting the Device
The device can be mounted on a desktop using the four anti-slide bumpers (supplied), which attach to the grooves on the underside of the device. Alternatively, it can be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack using the supplied mounting brackets, typically on a pre-installed rack shelf (a separate orderable item).
Cabling the Device to Power
- GROUNDING: Ground (earth) the device by connecting an electrically earthed strap of 16-AWG (minimum) wire to the device's grounding screw located on the rear panel, using the supplied washer. Fasten the wire securely using a 6-32 UNC screw. Connect the other end of the strap to protective earthing, in accordance with regulations enforced in the country of installation.
- Connect the device to the power source:
- AC POWER: Connect the line socket of the AC power cord (supplied) to the device's AC power inlet located on the rear panel. Connect the plug at the other end of the AC power cord to a standard electrical outlet.
- DC Power (Rev. C only): Insert the male DC plug into the DC inlet (DC 12V) connector on the device's rear panel, ensuring the latch faces up and snaps into the inlet. Plug the female connector of the supplied AC/DC power cord into the AC/DC power adaptor. Connect the plug at the other end of the AC power cord to a standard electrical wall outlet. Note: DC power is a separate orderable item and applicable only to Rev. C.
Assigning an IP Address to the Device
Use the device's factory default IP address (192.168.0.2/24) and Default Gateway (192.168.0.1) to initially access the device's Web-based management interface. You will then change it to suit your networking addressing scheme for subsequent connectivity.
- Using a CAT-5e/6 straight-through RJ-45 Ethernet cable, connect the device's Ethernet port GE 1 (front panel) to the LAN port on a computer.
- Change the IP settings of your computer to correspond with the device's default IP address and subnet mask.
- On your computer, open a standard Web browser (e.g., Google Chrome) and enter the device's default IP address in the URL field. The Web Login screen will appear.
- Type in the default username (Admin) and password (Admin), then click Log In.
- Open the IP Interfaces table (navigate via Setup menu > IP Network tab > Core Entities folder > IP Interfaces).
- Select the OAMP interface ('Application Type' with OAMP + Media + Control), click Edit, and then modify the device's OAMP interface in the dialog box.
- Click Apply to submit your changes. Your connection with the device will become unavailable at the default IP address due to the new IP address.
- Change the IP settings of your computer to correspond with the new OAMP IP addresses and subnet of the device.
- Access the device again using its new IP address. On the Web interface's toolbar, click the Save button; the new IP address is now saved to the device's flash memory.
- Re-cable the device to the required network. You can now access the device's management interfaces remotely using the new IP address.
