OPERATIONS

This iSE can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using the iConnect Configuration Software.

If DHCP and DNS servers are used, the connection is very simple, no need to find the right IP address or watch for network conflicts, these are all done for you by your network DHCP and DNS server. All that is left for you to do, is to enable DHCP on the iSE (see Section 2.2) and use a straight network cable to connect the iSE to a hub and power it up.

If DHCP is not the preferred method, you can configure your PC’s network connection with an IP address of 192.168.1.x that is in the same range as the iSE’s default IP address (192.168.1.200) and connect to the iSE using a cross-over network cable between your PC’s network port and the iSE. After you’re done with configuring the iSE, you can always set your PC back to its original settings.

On your computer, from the MS-DOS Prompt window type "ping 192.168.1.200” and press Enter. If DHCP and DNS servers are used type “ping eisxxxx”, where xxxx are the last four digits of the iSE’s MAC address, located on the back of the device. You should get a reply as shown in Figure 4.1.

You can use the iSE host name (eisxxxx) instead of its IP address only if your DHCP server is configured to communicate with your DNS. Please consult with your IT department for details.

This proves that the connection is proper and you can get into configuration or run mode using the Telnet or Web browser.
