IBM 201 manual Maintenance Date and Time, Network Setup, Enabling National Language Support NLS

v“Network Setup”

Although you can modify multiple appliance and network attributes in each task group, the information given here is the minimum you need to know to administer the appliance and network.

You can find more information on administration elsewhere in this book and in the online help.

Note that the icons for the task groups on the administration home page are not in the same order as presented here.

You can access these task groups in one of three ways:

1.Click the Home tab and then select the task group link.

2.Click the top tab associated with that task group.

3.Click the Back button on your browser until you arrive Home and then select the task group link.

Maintenance (Date and Time)

In the Maintenance task group, you will need to change the date and time. To do so, click on Date and Time or the green arrow. (Remember that you can also access all of these task groups by clicking on the titled tabs at the top of the page.) The Set Date and Time page appears to allow you adjust information as necessary.

Network Setup

Note: All appliances have an initial default User Name of “administrator” and

Password of “password”.

In the Network Setup task group, you are required to change the administrator password. Optionally, you can configure the properties of each network interface that resides on the appliance.

To change the administrator password, click on Change Administrator Password or the green arrow. The Change Administrator Password page appears to allow you to change the password. Note the warning on the page that any information you enter can be viewed by others on the network. To prevent others from seeing your information, set up a secure administration Web site as described in the online help.

To optionally change interface properties such as IP addresses, click on Interfaces or the green arrow. The Network Adapters on Server Appliance page appears. You would use this page primarily to change IP addresses from dynamic (DHCP, which is the system default) to static.

You can then select the network adapter you want to modify, and then choose one of the following tasks related to that adapter:

vIP, to modify IP configurations

vDNS, to modify DNS configurations

vWINS, to modify WINS configurations
