Use Ethernet port 1
Connect a management workstation to the network
You will use the management workstation to access Network Discovery through the browser interface once Network Discovery is up and running.
Even though you can connect your management workstation anywhere, we recommend that you connect a dedicated management workstation to the same concentrator or switch as the Peregrine appliance. When you are starting up, having a management workstation close to the Peregrine appliance makes it easier for you to check for loose connections and avoids problems due to network partitions or outages. Having the management workstation connected to the same concentrator or switch as the Peregrine appliance also ensures that the management workstation does not become isolated from Network Discovery in the event of device failures.
Connect an Uninterruptible Power Supply
Connecting an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is optional, but highly recommended. For information about UPS units that will work with the Peregrine appliance, see Appendix C, Extra Hardware on page 157.
Warning: If Network Discovery does not detect a UPS, it will issue a constant warning about the health of the Peregrine appliance.
