Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 29
Remote access via the management IP connection
Uplogix Local Manager uses Secure Shell (SSH) V2 software to provide secure remote access.
Your remote client application must also support SSH v2.
Supported clients include:
Uplogix Control Center Applet
PuTTY
VanDyke® SecureCRT®
SSHTerm for Windows
OpenSSH
For example, in a UNIX command line, type:
ssh admin@192.0.2.101
Log in with the default username and password (admin and password). When you are logged in,
you will see a prompt similar to the following:
[admin@UplogixLM]#
Note: The first time your SSH client connects to an SSH host following installation or
upgrade, you may see an SSH key fingerprint message. This is normal. The client usually
caches the key for subsequent use and warns if the host has changed, often indicating
network eavesdropping. This warning may reappear if the Local Manager is reset to factory
defaults.
Locking the keypad and changing the admin password
To ensure security, you may wish to lock the keypad and/or change the admin user’s
password when you log in for the first time.
To lock the keypad, use the config system keypad disable command. The shutdown, restart,
and factory reset functions will still be available from the keypad but the configuration menu
will not be available.
The admin user cannot be deleted and has access to all commands. To change the admin
account’s password, use the config password command.
[admin@UplogixLM]# config password
New Password: ********
Confirm Password: ********
Password changed.
Alternatively, you can remove the admin user's password with config user admin, no
password, or you could disable the user with config user admin, disabled.
You have completed the basic setup.
Refer to the User Guide for Uplogix Local Manager for detailed information about configuring
and managing the Local Manager.
