In the TimeKeeper Web UI, go to Con guration > Networking to con gure the
network ports. After entering your changes, click on Save network changes in the
upper right-hand corner. Then click on Restart TimeKeeper & Network in the same
location to apply the changes.
The changes will take a moment to apply after which you can reconnect to the newly con-
gured address.
Please see below for details on enabling additional access methods.
Verifying Configuration
After logging into the unit and connecting a GPS antenna, verify the synchronization sta-
tus in TimeKeeper under the Status tab. Once synchronization is established, the server
will answer NTP queries and provide any PTP service on the default domain (domain 0) on all
network interfaces.
Note that initial GPS startup can take up to 15 minutes.
No further server con guration should be necessary.
Default Network Configuration
The unit is shipped with static IP addresses: ETH0 = for 192.168.1.1, ETH1 = 192.168.2.1, etc.
This also applies to the optional 10/40 Gbps SFP+ ports: ETH5 (192.168.6.1) and ETH6
(192.168.7.1).
Access via RS232, keyboard/monitor, or SSH needs to be enabled through TimeKeeper™ –
see User Manual for details.
NOTE
About IPMI
IPMI is a protocol that allows for out-of-band management of computer systems, even when
they are turned o . IPMI is active whenever the server is powered.
VelaSync has a dedicated IPMI Ethernet interface (see page 3: rear panel illlustration, item
number 12.) By default, the IPMI interface uses DHCP to obtain an IP address.
The IP address of the IPMI interface is listed under the TimeKeeper™ Con guration > Net-
working tab: Network Interfaces. A static IP address can also be set if DHCP is not desired.
TimeKeeper does not support having multiple network interfaces on
the same subnet or multipath routing.
