Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S690 Guía Del Usuario

If you want to be able to remotely reset appliance power, you must enable and configure this 
functionality in advance, using the procedure described in this section. 

Cable the dedicated Remote Power Management port directly to a secure network. For information, 
see the Hardware Installation Guide. 

Ensure that the appliance is accessible remotely; for example, open any necessary ports through the 
firewall. 

This feature requires a unique IPv4 address for the dedicated Remote Power Management interface. 
This interface is configurable only via the procedure described in this section; it cannot be 
configured using the 

ipconfig

 command. 

In order to cycle appliance power, you will need a third-party tool that can manage devices that 
support the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0. Ensure that you are 
prepared to use such a tool. 

For more information about accessing the command-line interface, see 

 

Use SSH, telnet, or the serial console port to access the command-line interface. 

Sign in using an account with Administrator access.

setup 

Follow the prompts to specify the following:

commit

 to save your changes. 

Test your configuration to be sure that you can remotely manage appliance power. 

Ensure that the credentials that you entered will be available to you in the indefinite future. For example, 
store this information in a safe place and ensure that administrators who may need to perform this task 
have access to the required credentials. 

The following types of users can log into the Web Security appliance to manage the appliance:

Local users. You can define users locally on the appliance itself.
