PM 4 Quickstart Jake Messinger (jake@portmasters.com) Last update: 09/03/03 Visit: http://portmasters.com ================================================================ ALL manuals can be found online at www.portmasters.com. If you purchased your PM4 from PORTMASTERS.COM, it comes preconfired: ETHER0 IP (10baseT half duplex): 10.0.0.201 ETHER1 IP (10/100baseT full duplex): 10.0.0.202 You can set your PC with ip of 10.0.0.1 and use telnet or PMVISION found at ftp.portmasters.com/pub/le/software/java to configure the portmaster. Use ETHER0 for management only and ETHER1 for connection to your backbone. If the IP is not known, follow thes instructions: 1. Using a terminal or a PC with Hyperterm. Set it to 9600-N-8-1. 2. Connect the CONSOLE cable to the serial port of a PC. You may need to use a DB 25 to DB 9 adapter. The console cable is already crossed over so no NULL MODEM adapter is requrired. 3. Connect the RJ-45 end to port C0. Make sure that the top dip switch is to the right and the bottom is left, putting the SMM in CONSOLE mode (9600 bps n-8-1, xon/xoff flow control). 4. Plug in a power supply. After a post test you will see a "login:" prompt. 5. Login as "!root". Press ENTER for password. If there is a password and you don't know it, type "override" for the password. It will give you a 16 bit challenge string. Email this to override@portmasters.com. You will be emailed back a 16 digit override password. 6. Type the following commands after you've logged in: set password set ether1 address set ether1 netmask save all reset slot10 7. Connect an ethernet cable from your network to ETHER1. The unit should be pingable and telnettable now. 8. Use PMVISION from ftp.portmasters.com for further configuration. ============================================================================
