iControl Edge
Installation and Setup Guide
77
15. Type the appropriate port number in the Destination port base box (this number must
match what is specified in the
ALLEGRO.sdp file for this Allégro frame).
16. Click Apply.
17. Restart the Allégro.
18. Repeat step 11 to step 17 for each Allégro in the iControl Edge configuration.
19. Restart iControl on the Application Server.
Task 10: Verification & Readiness Check
When you finish configuring all devices, use an SSH client such as PuTTY to ping them from
the Application Server to make sure that the devices recognize each other on your network.
To verify that all devices are properly connected to your system
1. Launch PuTTY and log on to the Application Server (see "Establishing an SSH Connection
with an Application Server", on page 122).
2. In the PuTTY command line window, type the following:
ping‐s32AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD
where AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD is the new IP address of a Global Caché GC-100 Network Adapter.
A series of messages similar to the following should appear:
PING10.10.120.50(10.10.120.50)32(60)bytesofdata.
40bytesfrom10.10.120.50:icmp_seq=1ttl=99time=3.43ms
40bytesfrom10.10.120.50:icmp_seq=2ttl=99time=6.57ms
40bytesfrom10.10.120.50:icmp_seq=3ttl=99time=3.10ms
3. Repeat the previous step for every network device in your iControl Edge system (e.g. other
GC-100 network adapters at this location, an Allégro system if one was installed at this
location, other Application Servers if applicable).
Note: PuTTY is available from your Application Server’s Useful Downloads page. If
you do not have PuTTY installed on your PC or laptop (see ."Installing PuTTY", on
page 121).
Notes
•If the
ping command is successful, stop the ping by pressing
Ctrl
+
C
.
• If you see the message
DestinationHostUnreachable, stop the ping by
pressing
Ctrl
+
C
, and then verify that the device is powered up, properly
cabled, and that its IP address is correctly configured.
Notes
• For a GC-100 Network Adapter, type:
ping‐s32AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD.
• For any other device, simply type:
pingAAA.BBB.CCC.DDD.
