After some miscellaneous output, the following prompt appears: Hostname? If the Hostname? prompt does not appear on the console, check the console port and console display connections to ensure that the serial cable is completely plugged in at both ends. If you verify the console connections and still do not see either the BOOTMGR> or Hostname? prompts, verify that the terminal or terminal emulator program settings are correct. If the settings are correct, contact your Nokia service provider as listed in "Nokia Contact Information" on page 3. 3. Respond to the Hostname? prompt within 30 seconds to prevent the DHCP client from starting. If the DHCP client starts, it might configure the appliance with an incorrect host name and IP address (this could happen if a DHCP server on your network is configured to respond to any request). To reset the incorrect host name and IP address: a. Establish a console connection to the appliance. b. Log into the system using the user name admin and the password password. c. Enter the following: rm /config/active or mv /config/active /config/active.old d. Reboot the appliance. e. Respond to the Hostname? prompt within 30 seconds to prevent the DHCP client from restarting. 4. At each subsequent prompt, type the requested configuration information and then press Enter. For more information about how to respond to the prompts during the initial configuration process, see the Getting Started Guide and Release Notes for the version of Nokia IPSO you are using. 5. After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Network Voyager to configure the remaining network ports. Connecting Network Interfaces Connect at least one network interface to the network to use as the Nokia Network Voyager system-management interface.
