Use these instructions to connect to the CMM through
an Ethernet connection to use the CMM web
interface. The Ethernet connection is also used to connect to the CMM via
SNMPv1 and SNMPv3.
Note:
- The HTTP connection is not available when the CMM security
policy is set to Secure (the manufacturing default setting). When
the security policy is set to Secure, Ethernet connections must be
made using HTTPS.
- Before you can connect to the CMM via
SNMPv1 and SNMPv3, the CMM must
be configured to use this protocol.
- For the CMM web
interface, SNMP is configured in the SNMP tab 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.
- For the CMM CLI,
use the snmp command (see snmp command for information about command
use).
After you connect an Ethernet cable from the client
computer to the CMM (direct
connection or through a network), complete the following steps to
access the CMM web
interface:
- Make sure that the subnet of the client computer
is set to the same value as the CMM (the
default CMM subnet
is 255.255.255.0). The IP address of the CMM must also be in the same
local domain as the client computer. To connect to the CMM for the
first time, you might have to change the Internet Protocol properties
on the client computer.
- Open a web browser on the client computer, and
direct it to the CMM IP
address.
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 MM
xxxxxxxxxxxx,
where
xxxxxxxxxxxx is the burned-in MAC address. The MAC address
is on a label on the
CMM,
below the reset button (see
CMM controls
and indicators for the reset button location). See
IPv6 addressing for initial connection for information about determining
IPv6 addressing for the initial connection.
- Enter the CMM user
name and password to start the remote session.
- 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).
- Follow the instructions on the screen and be sure to set
the timeout value that you want for your web session.
- If you are connecting to the CMM for
the first time, perform the initial configuration of the Flex System
chassis.
