Chapter 3: Configuring the IN-tact 1101
Overview
No CD-ROMs or diskettes are required to configure the IN-tact1101. All configuration is done via a resident Web Server application, or alternately, through a SNMP manager. Initial configuration can only be accomplished via the Web Server application. SNMP is disabled by default. You can connect to the Web Server application using an Internet browser. After logging in to the unit, you can use a series of screens to configure the unit to match both the terminal configuration and desired network settings at the point of installation. When all configuration is complete, you must save the settings. The settings are then written to persistent memory within the device and the device restarts. You must then log in to the device again in order to continue. The procedures provided here assume you are configuring the unit for the first time.
The order in which you configure the IN-tactis up to you. The Web Server allows you to go to any screen, at any time, in any order. The configuration screens are presented here in the order in which they appear on the navigation tree of the Web Server application. However, once you are familiar with the configuration process, you can configure the device in any order that makes sense to you.
It is important to note that you can export a configuration from one IN-tact1101 and import it into another. This can save time if you are tasked with configuring multiple devices. Rather than having to configure all of the settings on each device, you can configure one, export the configuration, then import it into the other devices and make any necessary minor changes, such as assigning a unique IP address to each device. Procedures for importing and exporting a configuration are in the File Management Functions section on page 28.
