Initial setup

5

One test user is configured. You were prompted to set a user
name and password during the quick setup wizard (in this
example, user name and password are both set to

nha

). The

test user belongs to a group called

nhauser

. There are two

profiles within the group:

nha_passed

and

nha_failed

. Each

profile is associated with a client filter and a linkset. The profiles
determine the VLAN to which the user is allocated.

Table 3

"Extended profile details" (page 50)

shows the extended profiles

that have been created.

One or several domain names have been added to the DNS
search list, depending on what you specified at the prompt in the
quick setup wizard. This means that the client can enter a short
name in the portal’s various address fields (for example,

inside

instead of

inside.example.com

if

example.com

was added

to the search list).

7

If you selected the option to enable http to https redirection, an
HTTP server was created to redirect requests made with http to
https, since the Nortel SNAS portal requires an SSL connection.

Adding a Nortel SNAS device to a cluster

After you have installed the first Nortel SNAS in a cluster (see

“Setting

up a single Nortel SNAS device or the first in a cluster” (page 43)

), you

can add another Nortel SNAS to the cluster by configuring the second
Nortel SNAS setup to use the same MIP. When you set up the Nortel
SNAS to join an existing cluster, the second Nortel SNAS gets most of its
configuration from the existing Nortel SNAS device in the cluster. The
amount of configuration you need to do at setup is minimal.

You can later modify settings for the cluster, the device, and the interfaces
using the

/cfg/sys/[host <host ID> /interface]

commands.

Before you begin

Log on to the existing Nortel SNAS device to check the software version
and system settings. Use the

/boot/software/cur

command to

check the currently installed software version (for more information, see

“Managing software for a Nortel SNAS device” (page 363)

). Use the

/cfg/sys/accesslist/list

command to view settings for the Access

List (for more information, see

“Configuring the Access List” (page 273)

).
