Instruction Manual 1 Introduction Thank you f or purchasing a StarT ech.com Conyx ECS0016 Enhanced Console Server . This innov ativ e remote service management solution enables system administrators a.
Instruction Manual 2 Initial Conguration Unpack the ECS0016 kit and v erify you ha ve all of the parts indicated in the Pac kage Contents list shown on the previous page, and that the y all appear in good working order .
Instruction Manual 3 Management Console Connection The ECS0016 is pre-configured with a default IP Address: 192.168.0.1 and Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 . Directly connect a PC or workstation to the ECS0016. T o configure the ECS0016 with a browser , the connected PC or workstation should have an IP address in the same range as the ECS0016 (e.
Instruction Manual 4 ARPPing IP Address Assignment If it is not conv enient to change the PC/workstation network address, you can use the ARP-Ping command to reset the ECS0016 IP address. T o do this from a Windows PC: Click 1. Start > Run T ype 2.
Instruction Manual 5 Y ou will be prompted to log in. Enter the def ault administration username and administration pass word: Username: r oot P assword: default A W elcome screen will appear , listin.
Instruction Manual 6 Administrator Passw ord For security reasons, only the Administr ator (the administration user named root) can initially log into your gate wa y; only those people who know the root pass word can access and reconfigure the ECS0016 gate- wa y itself .
Instruction Manual 7 Network IP address Y ou now must enter an IP address f or the principal Ether net (LAN/Net- work/Network1) por t on the ECS0016 gatewa y , or enable its DHCP client so that it automatically obtains an IP address from a DHCP server on the network to which it is connected.
Instruction Manual 8 By default the ECS0016 LAN port auto detects the Ether net connection speed. Howe ver y ou can use the Media menu to loc k the Ethernet to 10 Mb/s or 100Mb/s and to Full Duplex (FD) or Half Duple x (HD).
Instruction Manual 9 HTTPS This ensures secure browser access to all of the Management Console menus. It also allows appropriately configured Users secure browser ac- cess to selected Management Console Manage menus.
Instruction Manual 10 There are also a number of related service options that can be configured at this stage: SNMP This will enable netsnmp in the gate wa y , which will keep a remote log of all posted information. SNMP is disabled by def ault. T o modify the default SNMP settings, the Administrator m ust make the edits at the command line.
Instruction Manual 11 Communications Soft ware Y ou have configured access protocols f or the Administrator client to use when connecting to the ECS0016. User clients (who you may set up later) will also use these protocols when accessing ECS0016 serial attached devices and netw ork attached hosts.
Instruction Manual 12 MetaConnect is a Ja va client prog ram that couples the SSH tunneling protocol with popular access tools such as T elnet, SSH, HTTP , HTTPS, VNC, RDP , to provide point-and-click secure remote management access to all the systems and devices being managed.
Instruction Manual 13 SSHT erm Another common communications package that ma y be useful is SSH- T erm, an open source package that can be downloaded from http://sourceforge .
Instruction Manual 14 Conguring Serial Ports T o configure the serial por t, you must first set the protocols and the RS232 parameters that are to be used f or the data connection to that por t (e.g. baud rate). Then you must select what mode the port is to operate in.
Instruction Manual 15 When you ha ve reconfigured the common settings and the mode f or • each por t, you set up an y remote syslog, then click Appl y Common Settings There are a number of common settings that can be set f or each serial por t, that are independent of the mode in which the por t is being used.
Instruction Manual 16 Before proceeding with further serial por t configuration, you should • connect the por ts to the serial devices the y will be controlling, and ensure they ha ve matching settings Please Note that the serial por ts are all factory set to RS232 9600 baud, no parity , 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and Console Server Mode.
Instruction Manual 17 F rom Win2000/XP/NT , you can run telnet from the command prompt • (cmd.ex e) Y ou can also use standard communications packages like PuTTY to • set a direct T elnet (o.
Instruction Manual 18 SSH It is recommended that you use SSH as the protocol whereb y the User or Administrator connects to the ECS0016 gatew a y (or connects to the attached serial consoles) over the Internet (or any other pub lic network).
Instruction Manual 19 For a User named ‘Paul’ to access serial por t 2, when setting up the SSHT erm or the PuTTY SSH client, instead of typing user name = paul and ssh por t = 3002, the alternate is to type user name = paul:por t02 (or username = fred:ttyS1) and ssh por t = 22.
Instruction Manual 20 RFC2217 also enables the serial por t to be tunneled to a remote ECS0016 client gatew ay , so two ser ial por t de vices can be transparently interconnect ov er a network.
Instruction Manual 21 Data Carrier Detect (DCD) pin on the serial device being raised. When a connection is detected, the getty program issues a login: prompt, and then inv okes the login prog ram to handle the actual system login.
Instruction Manual 22 can also be configured to suppor t the remote syslog protocol on a per serial por t basis. Select the Syslog F acility/Pr iority fields to enable logging of traffic on • the selected serial por t to a syslog ser ver; and to appropriately sor t and action those logged messages (i.

Instruction Manual 26 T rusted Networks The T r usted Networks utility provides the option to select specific IP addresses at which users (Administrators and Users) must be located, in order to hav e access to the ECS0016 serial por ts. T o add an address designation: Select 1.
Instruction Manual 27 Network IP Address : 204.15.5.128 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.224 Click 6. Apply . The abov e T r usted Networks will limit access by Users and the Adminis- trator , to the ECS0016 ser ial por ts and network attached hosts, how e ver they do not restrict access by the Administr ator to the ECS0016 console server itself.
Instruction Manual 28 Next, y ou must register the Public K ey as an A uthor ized K ey on the 5. Slav e. In the simple case with only one Master with multiple Slaves , you need only upload the one RSA or DSA pub lic ke y f or each Slav e.
Instruction Manual 29 The next step is to Fingerprint each new Slav e-Master connection, which will authenticate you as a legitimate user f or the SSH session. On the first connection the Slav e will receiv e a fingerpr int from the Master which will be used on all future connections.
Instruction Manual 30 of clustered console servers and the connected devices) Enter the full number of serial por ts on the Slav e unit in Number of 3.
Instruction Manual 31 next time the Master sends out a configur ation file update. Also , while the Master is in control of all Slav e ser ial por t related • functions, it is not Master ov er the Slave network host connections or ov er the Slav e console ser ver system itself .
