The library supports an independent customer network.
It is the cus
tomer’s responsibility to provide the proper length Ethernet cable for this connectivity.
The base module controller card has two Ethernet ports, which offer primary and redundant customer
network connectivity. See “Rear panel” on page 6
.
These c
onnections allow remote viewing and management of the library with the Management GUI.
Note: Have your network settings handy to use for entering on the Operator Panel. Your network settings
can also be stored as hardcopy on Appendix D, “Library Conguration Forms,” on page 189
.
The sec
ondary Ethernet port might be used for service. Three models are available for connection:
• No Ethernet port - Service personnel can connect a laptop to the customer network to use the
Management GUI.
• Dedicated secondary Ethernet port - The secondary network port that is dedicated only for service
personnel to connect a laptop directly to the library.
• Secondary Ethernet port - The secondary network port can be disconnected and service personnel can
use it to connect a laptop directly to the library.
