Chapter 14. Basic Administration

Basic configuration

Use Basic configuration to give the Telecommuting Module a start configuration. You can assign an IP address to it (for the web GUI), enter the IP addresses of computers allowed to connect to the web GUI and change the administrator password.

Wherever you can enter a value, there will be a default one in brackets, which is the current value. Press Return to select the default value. This is an easy way to fast-forward if you only want to change one of the parameters.

IP address

Give the Telecommuting Module an IP address. The IP address will be added to any ad- dresses already configured on the Telecommuting Module. The IP address entered here is the one that should be used to access the web GUI.

Basic unit installation program version 4.6.5

Press return to keep the default value

Network configuration inside:

Physical device name[eth0]:

IP address [0.0.0.0]: 10.47.2.242

Netmask/bits [255.255.255.0]: 255.255.0.0

Deactivate other interfaces? (y/n) [n]

Physical device name

Select which interface should get the IP address. The interfaces are named as on the exterior of the Telecommuting Module, such as eth0 and eth1.

IP address

Enter the IP address for the Telecommuting Module on the interface above. If the Telecom- muting Module didn’t have an IP address before, the default address will be 0.0.0.0. Enter a different address, or the Telecommuting Module will be unreachable via the web GUI.

Netmask/bits

At Netmask/bits, enter the netmask for the network to which the IP address above belongs. The netmask can be written as an IP address or a number of bits (see also chapter 3, Config- uring 3Com VCX IP Telecommuting Module).

Deactivate other interfaces

If the Telecommuting Module has been used one or more interfaces are active. Select here if all interfaces but the one selected above should be deactivated. You can activate them again via the web GUI.
