Optibase MGW 2400 WMT - Manual (Page 33)

Chapter 2 • Initial Configuration
To initialize MGW 2400 for the first time:
1. If you have not already done so, use a serial cable to
connect MGW 2400’s RS-232 port to the previously
chosen and configured serial COM1 port on the
Configuration PC.
2. Connect MGW 2400’s Ethernet links to two separate
network segments. Connecting both NICs to the same
network segment causes network conflicts.
3. To avoid network conflicts, make sure that you do not have
a network device with the hostname MGW2400 connected
to any of the relevant network segments.
4. Switch MGW 2400 on.
5. Start HyperTerminal and log on to MGW 2400’s
Configuration Utility as Administrator; MGW 2400
initializes. Administrator's default password is
Administrator.
• If you connect a DHCP enabled network segment to
NIC A, TCP/IP settings are assigned automatically for
that NIC.
• If you connect a network segment to NIC B or if the
network segment connected to NIC A is not DHCP
enabled, refer to page 34 for instructions on defining
TCP/IP settings for the relevant NIC.
6. Press any key to get to the Main menu.
Note
• External WMS servers require networks that support 100Mbps Full
Duplex.
• By default, DHCP is disabled for NIC B.
