First Time Setup

Once the B064-Series KVM Switch has been installed, the Super Administrator must prepare the unit up for user operation by setting the network parameters and adding users.

Network Setup - IP Address Determination

If you are an administrator logging in for the first time, you must access the B064-Series KVM Switch in order to give it an IP address to which users can connect. B064-Series KVM switches support both standard IPv4 and IPv6. There are three methods of doing this: Local Console, IP Installer and Browser.

1. Local Console

After the local console has been connected and the B064-Series KVM Switch is turned on, a login prompt appears on the console monitor:

Log in using the default Username: administrator and Password: password. For security purposes, it is strongly recommended that you change these to a unique Username and Password. (See Changing the Super Administrator Login section for instructions.)

After you successfully log in, the Local Console Main Screen appears:

1.Click the Device Management icon at the top of the screen.

2.On the screen that appears on the right-hand side of the page select the Network tab.
