Getting Started

 

This chapter covers all of the steps needed to get the MSS on-line and 
working. There are three basic methods used to log into the MSS and begin 
conÞguration.

 

Incoming (Remote) Logins: EZWebCon is the preferred conÞguration 
method for TCP/IP and IPX users. For TCP/IP and LAT users, other 
remote login options are available (see 

 

 

Serial Port Logins: Users can connect a terminal directly to the 

serial port, log in, and use the command line interface to conÞgure 
the unit.

 

Remote Console Logins: TCP/IP users can make a Telnet 

connection to the remote console port, port 7000. 

It is important to consider the following points before logging into and 
conÞguring the MSS:

¥

The MSS IP address must be conÞgured before any TCP/IP 

functionality is available (see 

 

¥

Connecting a terminal to the serial port or logging into the remote 

console port does not automatically create privileged user status. 
You must use the 

 

 command to conÞgure the unit 

(see 

 

 on 

 

¥

The remote console port is password protected (see 

 

 

).

¥

Only one person at a time may be logged into the remote console 

port (port 7000), regardless of the protocol being used. This 
eliminates the possibility of several people simultaneously 
attempting to conÞgure the MSS.

¥

Remote console logins cannot be disabled. The system manager 

will always be able to access the unit.

¥

Only one terminal at a time may be connected to the serial port.
