Documentation conventions Documentation conventions The following documentation conventions are used in this guide: Describing interactions with the UI You can interact with products by using different input methods: keyboard, mouse, touch, and more. So in most parts of the user documentation, generic verbs have been used that work with any input method. In cases where input-neutral verbs do not work, mouse-specific verbs are used as the first choice, followed by touch-specific verbs as the second choice.

Chapter 4 How do I... Configure UHD100T32 This section describes the major tasks required to configure a UHD100T32 fixed chassis for operation in your network. The following image illustrates the workflow required to configure a UHD100T32 fixed chassis: The topics that describe each of the tasks in the workflow are as follows:...
Page 35
If you are not using DHCP-based IP addressing, you will need to configure a static IP address. Static IP configuration requires that you use the RS232 port or the keyboard. To configure the static IP address, do the following on the UHD100T32 KCOS console: 1. Open the serial connection from your terminal emulation application.
Page 36
At the completion of this procedure, the UHD100T32 IP addressing would be similar to the configuration in the KCOS console. Set the system time We recommend you to set the UHD100T32 system time by using an NTP server before you install any licenses. To set the time, do the following on the UHD100T32 KCOS console: 1.

Set up the list of NTP servers: Usage: kcos date-time ntp-servers [command] Available commands: delete: Delete all the NTP servers show: Display the list of known NTP servers and their status set: Set a list of NTP servers For example: kcos date-time ntp-servers set 192.168.7.12 c.
Page 38
Before you install the licenses, set the time on the fixed chassis manually, as described in kcos date-time date set on page 34. Time discrepancies that are detected by UHD100T32 will invalidate the licenses. Licensing requirements The software licensing requirements for the UHD100T32 fixed chassis are as follows:...
See the UHD100T32 User Guide for details on license settings. Next steps After you have completed all the tasks in this section, your UHD100T32 fixed chassis is ready for use. We recommend the following next steps: Connect at least one of the test ports to your device under test.
