5. Remote Management
In order to facilitate Remote Management, the StorageLoader is
equipped with an Ethernet interface and a built in web server. The
Rem ote Management Interface (RMI ) can be accessed with a
standard web browser, such as In ternet Explorer, Mozilla or Opera.
5.1 Remote management configuration
To be able to start the StorageLoader Remote Managem ent
Interface, the StorageLoader must obtain a valid I P address. By
default, the StorageLoader will connect to a DHCP server to
dynamical ly configure its network interface. If a DHCP server is
available, the loader will get an IP address autom atically after
booting.
If no DHCP server is available, select Static mode and enter a legal
IP -address, netmask and default gateway with the buttons. In the
browser’s address field, enter the I P address of your
StorageLoader. See section 4.4.3 , Rem ote Management setup for
details.
