Patton electronic 07MOS10xx-GS, 1063 manual Access through the Ethernet LAN Management Port

OnSite Series Getting Started Guide 4 • System Management Access

8.Type the following CLI command to save the IP settings (address, net mask, and default gateway)for the Ethernet LAN management port to the system configuration file, and then press the Enter key:

save config

Note

CAUTION

Saving the configuration is important to prevent the loss of the IP configuration data if a system reset or reboot occurs.

Changing the IP address, net mask, and default gateway settings for the Ethernet LAN management port could result in the loss-of- management connectivity to the system, if the connection is cur- rently through that port.

At this point, the system responds with Configuration Saved to indicate that the IP settings have been saved to the system. The system is now ready for operation using the Web-based management interface.

Note You may also have access to the system through Telnet. This access requires prior configuration of the IP address of the Ethernet LAN management port through the RS-232 SERIAL port, as indicated in the preceding steps.

Note The system terminates the management session for any user when the session remains inactive for 30 seconds. This termination applies to management sessions through the SERIAL port or through Telnet. The login prompt appears when the system terminates a previously active session through the SERIAL port.

Access through the Ethernet LAN Management Port

To gain management access to the system for the first time through the Ethernet LAN management (LM) port, follow these steps:

1.Connect a PC to the Ethernet LAN management port using the RJ-45 connector.

Note You may connect the PC to the system from a remote location using an IP LAN or WAN that connects to the Ethernet LAN management port.

2.Configure the PC using the factory default settings for the Ethernet LAN management port.

Note By default, the IP address is set to 192.168.2.100, the net mask is set to 255.255.255.0, and the default gateway is set to 192.168.2.1

3.Launch the Web browser of your choice, and type the default IP address of the system in the Address field of the browser.

4.Log in to the system using the super, admin, or monitor user ID and password.

Note The factory-assigned default password for the Super user is super (all lowercase letters).
