Rack Mounting

Refer to the IBM Rack Installation Instructions provided with the server.

Connecting and Powering up the Application
Gateway

In geographic regions that are susceptible to electrical storms, Nortel

recommends that you plug the Application Gateway into an AC surge

suppressor.
The default IP address of the Application Gateway is 10.20.30.40, with a

netmask of 255.255.0.0. You will likely need to change that default address

to match your network scheme. You can either use the serial console

interface or the Web-based Administration Tool to change the IP address.

Note

Use the procedure in this section if you will use a serial console to change

the Application Gateway network settings. To use the Web-based

interface, see

“Alternate Procedure if Using a Crossover Cable,” page 13

.

To connect and power up the Application Gateway:

1

Connect the Application Gateway to the network.

WARNING
Do not modify or use a supplied AC power cord

if it is not the exact type required in the region

where the Application Gateway is installed and

used.
Be sure to replace the cord with the correct type.
