2-32 T-Series Traffic Director Installation, Configuration and Administration Guide
Chapter 2 Installing the T1000
By connecting the LOM port over a dedicated channel that is separate from the data or
management channel, you can make sure that connectivity to the T1000 is maintained even
if those networks are down.
Configuring the LOM Port
For initial configuration of the LOM port, connect to the port's default IP address and
change it to the address that you want to use for remote monitoring and management. Also
specify the administrator credentials and the network settings.
Note: The LEDs on the LOM port are nonoperational by design.
Step 1 In a Web browser, type the IP address of the LOM port. For initial configuration, type the
port’s default address: http://192.168.1.3.
Step 2 In the User Name and Password boxes, type the administrator credentials. You can obtain
the initial user name and password from Bytemobile.
Step 3 In the Menu bar, click Configuration.
Step 4 Under Options, click Network and type values for the following parameters:
• IP Address—The IP address of the LOM port.
• Subnet Mask—The mask used to define the subnet of the LOM port.
• Default Gateway—The IP address of the router that connects the T1000 to the
network.
Step 5 Click Save.
Using the LOM to Power Cycle the T1000
You can remotely turn off the T1000 and turn it back on. The result is similar to pressing the
power button on the back panel of the T1000 for less than four seconds. The operating
system performs a graceful shutdown. All operations on the T1000 are stopped, no new
connections to the client or server are accepted, and all the existing connections are closed.
Step 1 In a Web browser, type the IP address of the LOM port.
Step 2 In the User Name and Password boxes, type the administrator credentials.
Step 3 In the Menu bar, click Remote Control.
Step 4 Under Options, click Power Control, and then click Power Cycle Server.
Step 5 Click Perform Action.
Using the LOM to Perform a Core Dump
If the T1000 fails or becomes unresponsive, you can remotely perform a core dump. This
procedure has the same effect as pressing the NMI button on the back panel of the T1000.
