Samba – allows browsing files on the ēKo gateway via Windows Explorer interface
(Section 7.2.2).
Ssh – connects to the ēKo gateway using secure shell command interface (Section
7.2.1).
Admin – launches login page for gateway administration and database management
(Section 7.3).
A final way to find the IP address of an ēKo gateway is to listen to its beeping sequence at the
end of the boot-up period. This sequence can be interpreted as follows:
A low sound is emitted for two seconds to indicate the start of the sequence
A set of medium beeps are emitted for each number in the IP address, e.g., "1" causes
one beep, "2" two beeps and so on. "0" is expressed as ten beeps.
A high beep is emitted for each "." In the IP address
EXAMPLE
This is the beep sequence for the IP "192.168.1.77":
7.2 Remote ēKo gateway Administration
The remote gateway administration requires the Linux user name and password. There are two
main predefined logins.
Most tasks can be accomplished using the "user" account which should be the standard way of
logging in. Some specific tasks require "root" privileges. Special care should be taken when
using the "root" account as mistakes can render the system unstable or inoperable.
IMPORTANT:
the eKoView web administration and the passwords can be found on the sticker attached to the
CD-ROM included in your ēKo gateway package.
7.2.1 Access using ssh
A remote terminal that supports the Secure Shell (ssh) protocol can be used to log directly into
the ēKo gateway. The actual ssh invocation varies between different ssh clients. For UNIX
