Configuration Methods
After installation, the EMG requires configuration. For the unit to operate correctly on a network, it
must have a unique IP address on the network. This IP address references the specific unit.
For details on how to configure the unit with basic network settings, see Chapter 5: Quick Setup.
The EMG provides the following methods for logging into the unit to configure EMG settings
monitor performance:
Web Manager: View and configure all settings through a secure, encrypted web interface
using most web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, or Internet Explorer with the latest browser
updates). See Chapter 6: Web and Command Line Interfaces.
Command Line Interface (CLI): The command mode may be accessed through Telnet, SSH,
Web Telnet/SSH or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a terminal emulation program) to
the unit’s console port. See Chapter 6: Web and Command Line Interfaces.
