iPATH Agility Controller
IMPORTANT
When you log in for the first time on an iPATH Agility Controller (firmware v4.0 or above) you need to specify a role before being
able to configure the server. There are two options:
• Solo - There is only ever going to be one iPATH Agility Controller on the network (with no redundancy and failover), or
• Primary - The server is going to be used in a network with a redundant cluster of iPATH Agility Controllers and will be the
main server used to manage the Agility units.
If there is already a primary server on the network when the iPATH Agility Controller powers up, it will detect this and configure
itself as a backup server automatically. After selecting the role you can then configure the server as you wish.
You will next be presented with the Settings page where you will need to change iPATH Agility Controller's default IP address to
one that suits your existing network configuration.
You will NOT be able to perform any other actions or navigate to any other pages within the iPATH Agility Controller admin
interface until you have changed iPATH Agility Controller's IP address.
To change the IP address, type in a new IP address in the relevant field (you should also change the gateway/netmask details for
your network).
When you click Save, after a delay the web browser will automatically redirect itself to the new IP address so that you can
continue administering the iPATH Agility Controller.
Note: Ensure that your access computer can view the new IP address, otherwise the iPATH Agility Controller will appear to be
offline. Depending on your network configuration and that of the access computer, you may need to change the access
computer's configuration to be able to see the iPATH Agility Controller's new network address.
You will then be asked to login again and will have full access to all of the iPATH Agility Controller's pages.
Note: If an existing iPATH Agility Controller must be replaced, follow the important advice given within Appendix C (Swapping
out an iPATH Agility Controller).
