Super Administrator Setup

Overview

This chapter discusses the administrative procedures that the Super

Administrator performs to get the KVM over IP switch set up for the first time.

First Time Setup

Once the KVM over IP switch has been cabled up, the Super Administrator

needs to set the unit up for user operation. This involves setting the network

parameters, and changing the default Super Administrator login. The most

convenient way to do this for the first time is from the local console.

Note: For remote methods of setting up the network, see IP Address

Determination, page 237.

After the local console has been connected (see Single Stage Installation,

page 23), and the KVM over IP switch turned on, a login prompt appears on

the console monitor:

Since this is the first time you are logging in, use the default Username:

administrator; and the default Password: password.

Note: For security purposes, you should change these to a unique Username

and Password. (See Changing the Super Administrator Login, page 34

for details.)
