Goal
To access the console of the Digi EX15 using the Terminal on Unit link presented in aView for the
device.
Note Terminal on Unit leverages the management tunnel established between the Digi EX15 and
aView. For details on the monthly data usage for this access, see Data usage estimates.
Setup
For this setup, you need access to aView and a Digi EX15 online and syncing with aView. If you see the
Digi EX15 listed as up (green status) in aView, you are good to go.
Details
Note aView uses the IPSec tunnel the Digi EX15 establishes to ipsec.accns.com to provide terminal
access to the console of the Digi EX15. For details on the monthly data usage for this access, see Data
usage estimates.
The following configuration sets up the Digi EX15 to report its IPSec tunnel local IP address as the
management IP that aView can then use to access its console.
Open the configuration profile for the Digi EX15. Under IPSec -> Tunnels > Accelerated View, set the
Management priority to 10. This gives the aView IPSec tunnel the highest priority management
interface, which it then reports to aView as the IP that can be used to access its console.
