Using the Startup Wizard

Note You can use either the RJ-45 console port or the USB console port.

Note The first time that you connect a Windows PC to the USB console port, you are prompted to install the USB console driver. Follow the installation prompts to install the driver. The USB console driver maps to a COM port on your PC; you then need to map the terminal emulator application to the COM port.

See the “USB Mini-B Console Port” section on page 5 for more information about the USB console driver.

Follow these steps to connect the PC to the controller’s console port:

Step 1 If you use the CONSOLE port, plug the RJ-45 connector on a null-modem serial cable into the controller’s CONSOLE port and the other end of the cable into the PC’s serial port.

If you use the USB console port, plug the 5-pin mini Type B connector into the controller’s USB console port and the other end of the cable into the PC’s USB Type A port.

Step 2 Start the PC’s terminal emulation program.

Step 3 Configure the terminal emulation program for the following parameters:

•9600 baud

•8 data bits

•No flow control

•1 stop bit

•No parity

Using the Startup Wizard

Before you can use the startup wizard, you may need to obtain the information discussed in the “Required Tools and Information” section on page 11. Also, you will need to know the following information:

•Management network interface IP Address

•Wireless management interface IP Address

•VLAN number for the wireless management interface

At any point you may enter a question mark (?) for help. Press Ctrl-C to abort the configuration dialog at any prompt. Default settings are enclosed with square brackets ([]).

Basic management setup configures only enough connectivity for management of the system, extended setup will ask you to configure each interface on the system.

To configure the controller for basic operation using the Startup Wizard, follow these steps:

Step 1 When prompted to enter basic management setup, enter yes.

Step 2 Enter the hostname, which is the name you want to assign to the controller.
