Configuring the Network
Boot-Up Process
30 | SmartRack 116 IP
3 Configuring the Network
After the system has been installed and all connections have been made, you must
configure the SmartRack 116 IP system as follows:
1. Configure SmartRack 116 IP’s network settings, which includes configuring:
Device ID settings
SmartRack 116 IP’s IP address
Centralized Management
2. Configure the SNMP settings.
3. Add, edit, remove, and block system Users.
4. Configure the KVM switch settings.
5. Configure the security settings.
You can also perform the following additional operations, as required:
1. Install an SSL certificate.
2. Upgrade firmware.
3. Restore factory settings.
3.1 Boot-Up Process
By default, SmartRack 116 IP boots with an automatically assigned IP address from a
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server on the network (see Figure 33 for
an
overview of the boot-up process). The DHCP server assigns the SmartRack 116 IP
a valid IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask.
This automatically assigned IP address can be identified according to the SmartRack
116 IP MAC address that appears on the underside of the SmartRack 116 IP box, next
to the device number (D.N.).
If no DHCP server is found on the network, SmartRack 116 IP boots with the static IP
address: 192.168.0.155.
If a DHCP server later becomes available, the unit picks up the IP settings from
the DHCP server. To keep the static IP address, you can disable DHCP, as
explained in Section 3.3.2 on page 35.
