Performing the Initial Configuration
The first time you turn on power to a Nokia IP1200 Series appliance, the initial configuration
process begins. This process enables you to configure the network settings and provides access
to the
admin
account.
You can perform the initial configuration in two ways:
Configure a DHCP server to provide the initial configuration information the first time the
appliance is started.
Perform the initial configuration manually by using a console connection.
This chapter describes how to perform the initial configuration manually by using a console
connection. It includes the following sections:
Using a Console Connection
Connecting Power and Turning the Power On
Performing the Initial Configuration
Connecting Network Interfaces
Using Nokia Network Voyager
Using the Command-Line Interface
Using Nokia Horizon Manager
For information about how to use the DHCP client for initial configuration, see the
Read Me
First
document,
Using DHCP to Configure Your Appliance
, included with the appliance.
Note
Nokia recommends that you physically install all NICs, ADP module, and other hardware
components before you perform the initial configuration procedure this chapter describes.
For information about how to install NICs and ADP modules, see
Chapter 4, “Installing and
Replacing Network Interface Cards and Accelerated Data Path (ADP) Services Modules.”
For information about how to install other components, see
Chapter 7, “Installing and
Replacing Components Other than Network Interface Cards (NICs) and Accelerated Data
Path (ADP) Services Modules.”
