You can connect to the CMM CLI
through a Secure Shell (SSH) connection.
After you connect an Ethernet
cable from the client computer to the CMM (direct
connection or through a network), complete the following steps:
Make sure that the SSH server on the Flex SystemCMM is
enabled (SSH is enabled by default).
In the CMM web
interface:
Set the SSH port on the Port Assignments page on the Network Protocol
Properties page (select Network from the Mgt Module Management menu).
All fields and options are fully described in the CMM web
interface online help.
Enable the SSH server on the SSH Server page on the Security page
(select Security from the Mgt Module Management menu).
All fields and options are fully described in the CMM web
interface online help.
In the CMM CLI:
Set the SSH port by using the ports -sshe command
(see ports command for information about command
use).
Enable the SSH server by using the sshcfg -cstatus command
(see sshcfg command for information about command
use).
Start an SSH session to the CMM by
using the SSH client of your choice. For example, if you are using
the cygwin client, from a command prompt on the network-management
workstation, type ssh ip_address (where ip_address is
the CMM IP
address), and press Enter.
For the first connection to the CMM,
use the default IP address of the CMM;
if a new IP address has been assigned to the CMM,
use that one instead.
Note: The manufacturing default static
IPv4 IP address is 192.168.70.100, the default IPv4 subnet address
is 255.255.255.0, and the default host name is MMxxxxxxxxxxxx,
where xxxxxxxxxxxx is the burned-in MAC address. The MAC address
is on a label on the CMM,
below the reset button. See IPv6 addressing for initial connection for information
about determining IPv6 addressing for the initial connection.
At the login prompt, type the CMM user
ID. At the password prompt, type the CMM password.
The same user ID and password are used for all methods
of connecting to the CMM.
The password is case sensitive. The user ID is not case sensitive.
The default CMM user
name is USERID, and the default password is PASSW0RD (note the number
zero, not the letter O, in PASSW0RD).
The CLI command prompt is displayed. You can now enter
commands for the CMM.
If you are connecting to the CMM for
the first time, perform the initial configuration of the Flex System Enterprise
Chassis (see Configuring the CMM for information).
