The following instructions assume you are installing a new console server or you have reset an
existing unit to factory default parameters.
Default configuration is with IPV4 and IPV6 enabled:
• IPV4 networking will be enabled and the main Ethernet interface IP address will be obtained
from a DHCPv4 Server.
• IPV6 networking will be enabled only for the basic services of the main Ethernet interface and
its IPv6 address will be obtained from a local router (stateless only option).
To configure initial network parameters using the wiz command:
1. From your terminal emulation application, log in to the console port as

[root@CAS root]# passwd
New password:
