Quick Start; Enterprise Device Manager - Avaya 5900 Series Quick Start Configuration

Quick Start

You can use the install command in Avaya Command Line Interface (ACLI) or the Quick Start
menu in Enterprise Device Manager (EDM) to configure the following:
• quick start VLAN
• in-band IP address and subnet mask
• default gateway
• management subnet mask, management IP address and management default gateway
• read-only and read-write community strings
• IPv6 in-band address and IPv6 default gateway
• management IPV6 address and management IPV6 default gateway
Note:
When you reset the switch to factory default, the setup utility does not start automatically. Use
the install command to start the setup utility. The default IP address of the switch is
192.168.1.1 if the switch does not get its IP address from another source.

Enterprise Device Manager

Enterprise Device Manager (EDM) is an embedded graphical user interface (GUI) that you can use
to manage and monitor the platform through a standard web browser. EDM is embedded in the
switch software, and the switch operates as a web server, so you do not require additional client
software. For more information about EDM, see Using ACLI and EDM on Avaya Ethernet Routing
Switch 5900 Series, NN47211-104.
If you want to manage the switch from a centralized location through Configuration and
Orchestration Manager (COM) 2.0 and later, Avaya offers optional, product-specific EDM plug-ins
for COM that include other features such as centralized syslog, trap viewer, troubleshooting and
diagnostic tools. For more information, or to purchase plug-ins, go to www.avaya.com.
Enterprise Device Manager access
To access EDM, open http://<deviceip>/login.html or https://<deviceip>/login.html from either
Microsoft Internet Explorer (minimum version 8.x), or Mozilla Firefox (minimum version 3.x).
Important:
You must enable the web server from ACLI to enable HTTP access to EDM. If you want HTTP
access to the device, you must also disable the web server secure-only option. The web server
secure-only option is enabled by default and allows HTTPS access to the device. Take the
appropriate security precautions within the network if you use HTTP.
