Chapter 1. The Quick Start Guide

Using the Linux tool

On the top of the window the MAC address of the device is displayed. To detect
the MAC address manually, press the button “Refresh”. The displayed MAC
address is the same MAC address printed on the white sticker placed on the
back of the B050-000. The Linux setup tool does currently not support device
configuration via the USB interface. Please use either a network connection or
the serial console for the initial device configuration.

Furthermore, there are two buttons on the window: “Query Device” and “Setup
Device”. Press the “Query Device” button to display the preconfigured values
of the network configuration. The values are displayed in the text fields lo-
cated nearby. If necessary, adjust the network settings to your needs. To save the
changes enter an user name and an according password. Then press the “Setup
Device” button.

propiate button of the window frame.
