Tsunami MP-8100 Installation and Management Guide 180
8.4.7.2 Attaching the Serial Port Cable
1. Connect one end of the serial cable to the unit and the other end to a serial port on your computer.
2. Power on the computer and unit, if necessary.
8.4.7.3 Initializing the IP Address using CLI
After installing the serial port, you may use the CLI to communicate with the device. CLI supports most generic terminal
emulation programs, such as HyperTerminal (which is included with the Windows operating systems). In addition, many web
sites offer shareware or commercial terminal programs you can download. Once the IP address has been assigned, you can
use the HTTP interface or the CLI over Telnet to complete the configuration.
Follow these steps to assign the MP-8100 unit an IP address:
1. Open your terminal emulation program (like HyperTerminal) and set the following connection properties:
• Com Port: <COM1, COM2, etc., depending on your computer>
• Baud rate: 115200
• Data Bits: 8
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow Control: None
• Parity: None
2. Press the REBOOT button on the PoE of the unit.
The terminal display shows Power On Self Tests (POST) activity, displays the software version, and prompts to enter the CLI
username and password similar to the example below. This process may take up to 90 seconds.
