Configuring the Model 2160

There are three different ways you can configure the Model 2160: the serial console, Telnet, or a web browser.

Web configuration requirements

Make sure that the PC you use for configuration has an Ethernet adapter and TCP/IP installed.

The Model 2160 provides a browser interface that allows you to configure and manage the Ethernet Extender. After you set up the IP address for the 2160, you can access the Ethernet Extender's Web interface applications directly in your browser by entering the IP address. You can then use your Web browser to manage and config- ure the unit from a PC.

Note For detailed information on configuring the Model 2160 through the

Web interface, see Chapter 4, “Web configuration” on page 32.

Console configuration requirements

To configure the Model 2160 through the serial console, you can directly connect a terminal or a PC equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as Hyper Terminal) to the Ethernet Extender's console port.

Use the supplied serial cable (RJ-45 to DB9F) to connect the Model 2160 to a PC. After marking the connec- tion, configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following parameters:

•9600 bps

•8 data bits

•no parity

•1 stop bit

Note For detailed information on configuring the Model 2160 through the serial console, see Chapter 5, “Console and Telnet configuration” on page 66.

Telnet configuration requirements

Make sure that the PC you use for configuration has an Ethernet adapter and TCP/IP installed. The Model 2160 supports Telnet for remote configuration. The command is “telnet 192.168.1.1” . When prompted for the username and password for remote login, use admin for username and admin for password. All display screens are the same as serial console configuration.

The default IP address is 192.168.1.1, but you may change the IP address for your application.

Note For detailed information on configuring the Model 2160 through Telnet, see Chapter 5, “Console and Telnet configuration” on page 66.
