Using ATTO ExpressNAV

ATTO ExpressNAV is the recommended management tool for the iPBridge. It is a web- based graphical user interface (GUI) that allows you to manage the iPBridge by clicking choices and commands in traditional GUI fashion or by entering Command Line Interface commands directly, as you would in a terminal emulation session.

The minimum requirement for browsers is Internet Explorer 5.5 or Netscape Navigator 6.2.

Access from any web browser that supports the latest standards for XHTML 1.0 and CSS1. To make ExpressNAV as compatible as possible with as many browsers as possible, all pages are written in pure XHTML 1.0 and CSS1.It is compatible with the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla (including K- Meleon, Camino, Mozilla Firefox, Epiphany and Galeon), and KHTML (including Konqueror and Safari).

To take full advantage of the ExpressNAV interface, enable Java script through your browser.

Connecting using the serial port

1Connect an RJ11 part number CBL-0911-001 and adapter crossover serial cable (null modem) between the ATTO iPBridge serial port and one of the computer's serial COM ports.

A gender changer or DB-9 to DB-25 converter may be needed depending on the cables being used.

2Enable the computer’s serial port and initiate a terminal emulation link.

3Set the following serial parameters in your terminal program:

Bits per second: 115200

Data Bits: 8

Parity:, None

Stop Bits: 1

Flow Control: None

Terminal type: ASCII

Echo: on.

4Press Enter several times until the Ready prompt is displayed.

5Disable DHCP by typing

set ipdchp dp0 disabled

6 To configure the IP address, type

set ipaddress dp0 w.x.y.z

where w.x.y.z is an addressable address for your network.

7 To configure the subnetmask, type

set ipsubnetmask dp0 a.b.c.d

where a.b.c.d is the subnet you want the iPBridge to be available.

8 To configure the gateway, type
