Model 1001MC Operations Guide 
3 • Getting started
The 1001MC will then begin polling rack #2 on the daisy chain port starting from address 16. in a redundant 
power supply system, the address range for rack #1 (the rack with the 1001MC installed) will be from address 
1 to address 13. The 1001MC will then begin polling rack #2 on the daisy chain port starting from address 14. 
The daisy-chained racks are setup in the same manner with 13 addresses being available in a redundant system 
and 15 addresses being available in single supply system. When you disable a rack the addresses are still set 
aside for that rack space. If a power supply is removed, the addressing will not change unless you make the 
change through the 1001MC web pages. This allows easy service of the power supplies.
Introduction to the internal HTTP/HTML management pages 
This section explains how to configure the internal HTTP/HTML management pages to manage your Patton 
NetLink System. The system can also be managed by using an SNMP Network Management Station using a 
standard SNMP software package or MIB walking tool. 
Logging into the HTTP/HTML administration pages
To log into the HTTP/HTML administration pages, you must enter the 4-octet Internet protocol (IP) 
address—in the format http://your.server.ip.address (for example, http://201.168.15.12)—as the universal 
resource locator (URL) into a World-Wide Web (WWW) browser. After you enter the IP address, the 
1001MC will prompt for your user name and password as shown in 
.

The Model 1001MC has two levels of password protection: 
superuser—The superuser password level lets you view statistics and make configuration changes to the sys-
tem. To log in as a superuser, type the word superuser, all lower case, as the username and password
monitor—The monitor level password enables you to view statistics, but it will not let you make any config-
uration changes. To log into the system at the monitor level, type monitor, all lower case, for the username 
and password.
Note
The superuser and monitor passwords are set in the unit as the 
default passwords. For proper security, make sure that during your 
initial setup, you change the passwords (see section 
 on page 246 for information on how to change passwords).
