IPmux-1/1EInstallation and Operation Manual

 

 

Manage IPmux-1/4 by means of SNMP-based network management stations, e.g., the RADview network management station offered by RAD.

Changing Parameters

Use the <Spacebar> on your keyboard to toggle between options in the menus, and then save.

Press <Enter> after entering a new parameter, such as the IP address, and then save by pressing S.

At any point and from any screen, you can press <Esc> repeatedly, backing up until you reach the Main menu.

Checking Connectivity

After the configuration has been completed, several tests should be performed in order to verify proper connectivity. For testing procedures see Section 5.5.

5.2 IPmux-1

Powering-up

To turn on IPmux-1:

1.Make sure all IPmux-1 cables and connectors are properly connected.

2.Connect IPmux-1 to a PC equipped with an ASCII terminal-emulation application (for example, Windows 95 Hyper Terminal or Procomm).

3.Turn on the control-terminal PC and set its default port parameters to

19,200 baud, 8 bits/character, No Parity, 1 stop bit.

4.Set the terminal emulator to ANSI VT100 emulation (for optimal view of system menus).

5.Switch ON the POWER supply switch, located on the rear panel.

When the initialization and self-test are over, a menu appears displaying initialization and self-test results. If the self-test is successful, the RDY LED on the left side of the front panel lights up.

To logon:

1.Press <Esc> to open the configuration software.

2.Enter your User Name as Supervisor (su) and press <Enter>.

3.Enter your Password (the factory-set password is xxxxxxxxxx).

Note If the password is invalid in three consecutive attempts, the system becomes inaccessible for 15 minutes.
