Configuring The Network Connection - Interflex IF-57 Series Manual

1. Change the password.
2. Configure the network connection.
3. Restart the terminal to establish the new network connection.
4. Integrate the terminal into a time recording/ access control program, such as IF-6020/IF-6040, and load
the data. Please refer to the manual of the time management/ access control program for detailed
information.
5. Check the RFID reader.
6. Lock the housing with the mortise lock and then put the adhesive tape over the lock.
14.1 Changing the Controller Password
You can change the specified password with the Linux command passwd.
Recommendation: Choose an encrypted password.
root@poe-201:~ passwd
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully
root@poe-201:~
Please keep the new password in a safe place. If it is lost, the commands can no
longer be accessed. The device must then be returned to the manufacturer to be reset.
Once you have changed the password, you have to login again for it to take effect.

14.2 Configuring the Network Connection

Network connections are configured with the command netpar -x
root@poe-201:~ netpar -x
IP address [172.18.70.52] :172.18.12.136
Gateway [172.18.70.1]
Netmask [255.255.0.0]
Port number [2001]
hostname [poe-201]
save changes? [y/n] y
save changes to file /etc/hostname...successful
...successful
save changes to file /etc/network/interfaces...successful
static IP address interface settings
MAC address: 50:2D:F4:05:67:D4
ip address : 172.18.70.52
subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
gateway : 172.18.70.1
Port number: 2001
hostname : poe-201
root@poe-201:~
In the example, address 172.18.70.52 was changed to address 172.18.12.136. Other settings, such as
Gateway, Netmask, etc. that are not to be changed can simply be confirmed by pressing the Return key.
14.3 Perform a Restart
Two commands can be used to restart the terminal:
§
oc -s ( warm boot)
§
oc -c (cold boot)
You have to restart the terminal, for example, if you have changed the network address.
The new settings have been accepted and are enabled when the master terminal of the IF-57xx shows the
start icons.
