Using Telnet; Logging On; Access; Context Sensitive - DragonWave Horizon COMPACT Plus Product Manual

6.0 Initial Configuration
There are a number of configuration steps that need to be carried out before the Horizon Compact Plus
can become operational. It is recommended that these steps be performed prior to mounting the system
on the tower. These steps relate to:
radio bands
frequency channels
Once this information has been correctly entered, the Horizon Compact Plus system is ready for
installation and system alignment.
The Horizon Compact Plus can be configured using Telnet or the Web interface.
Before attempting to log on you must configure the network parameters of your laptop, or PC, so that they
are in the same domain as the Horizon Compact Plus default IP address and subnet mask values.
By default, the IP address of a Horizon Compact Plus system is 192.168.10.100 and the subnet mask is
set to 255.255.0.0. Use this IP address to communicate with the unit, using either Telnet or the Web
browser. A complete set of CLI commands is available for use with Telnet (See Appendix A).
For the copper interface, connect your laptop or PC Ethernet port to physical Port 2 (GigE port) on the
Horizon Compact Plus using a straight through Ethernet cable. By default the management option is set
to "out-of-band", which will allow management via p2. Note that ports p3 and p4 are disabled by default.
6.1 Secure Management Access.
Secure management access is controlled by a user name and password. The default Super User name is
"energetic" and the default password is "wireless". The system allows any format for user passwords
(except the use of special characters), but does not allow a duplicate name or password. Also, an existing
user name cannot be used as a password. The same rules apply for both Telnet and Web access.
The default the system allows DragonWave personnel unhindered access to the system using a
proprietary access code. This may be necessary if default Super User parameters have been changed
and have been forgotten, or remote access is required to troubleshoot the system.
