Raritan Computer SX - Manual (Page 27)

C HAPTER 2: I NSTALLATION 9
Initial Configuration Using the Command Line Interface
To initially configure the Dominion SX unit from the Command Line Interface, follow the steps
below.
1. Connect the serial port of your Installation Computer to the Terminal serial port on your
Dominion SX. This port is a DB9-Male port on most models, except ALL dual-power dual-
LAN models, including DSXA-48, which have an RJ45 connector for a terminal port.
2. Open a terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal, to connect to the Dominion SX
unit. The serial communication parameters are 9600 bps, No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and
None flow control.
3. Power ON the Dominion SX.
4. Log in using the default username admin and the default password raritan when prompted.
Once logged in a prompt to change the password appears.
5. Type a new password, and then retype it (Remember this password).
A display will appear showing the Dominion SX unit’s status and serial channel ports.
Note: If the password entered does not follow the password rules, an error message will
appear as a warning. The user will then be logged out and need to start over again for
password setting.
Network Access
1. Ensure that the installation computer has the route for 192.168.0.192 and that it can
communicate with IP address 192.168.0.192.
2. To check the route table in Windows, type the command route print in a Command
window on the installation computer. If 192.168.0.192 is on the gateway list, proceed to step
3. Otherwise, add 192.168.0.192 to the gateway list using the appropriate DOS or UNIX CLI
command:
• Windows 98/2000/NT system: route add 192.168.0.192
<INSTALLATION COMPUTER IP ADDRESS> .
[Example: route add 192.168.0.192 15.128.122.12
• UNIX (including Sun Solaris) system:
route add 192.168.0.192 <CLIENT_HOST IP ADDRESS> -interface .
[Example: route add 192.168.0.192 15.128.122.12 –interface]
3. Type ping 192.168.0.192. Go to step 4 if you receive a successful reply from the
Dominion SX unit. If an error occurs, verify that the default IP address is entered correctly
and that a route to that IP address exists.
4. Use the installation computer to connect to the unit by launching a browser and typing the
factory default IP address 192.168.0.192 in the Web browser’s address box.
Set Date and Time
1. Type Configuration to change the unit’s configuration.
2. Type Time to select the Date / Time configuration.
3. Type Timezonelist and find the number code that corresponds to your time zone.
4. Type clock [tz timezone] [datetime datetime-string]. The following is an
example:
admin > Config > Time > clock tz 9 datetime “2007-02-05
09:22:33”
In this example, 9 is the time zone code (Step 3) and “2007-02-05 09:22:33” the
date/time string in the format “YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS” (quotes required).
