Setting Up Oracle Roving Edge Device
Note:
With PuTTY, you can't configure all these settings individually. However,
you can configure the PuTTY default settings by selecting the Serial
connection type and specifying 115200 for the Serial Line baud speed. This
configuration is sufficient to use PuTTY as a terminal emulator for the
device.
What's next?
Power On the Device
Unlock the Device
Roving Edge Device arrives in a locked state. You must unlock the device using an unlock passphrase when you
power on the device.
The passphrase was created when you created the device node, as described in
Device
Node.
Note:
Anytime you reboot the device, it reverts to a locked state. Receiving a
Device is locked message after trying to connect to an API endpoint is
indicative that the device is in a locked state. Unlock the device to proceed.
Note:
If your device is unexpectedly in a locked state, it might have accidentally
rebooted. Check that your power connection is steady and not inadvertently
causing device reboots.
1. From the serial console Configure Networking screen, select Go Back to return to the main serial console menu.
2. Select Unlock Device.
In the terminal emulator, you're prompted for the passphrase.
3. Enter the unlock passphrase to unlock the device.
The device is unlocked, and the serial console menu is displayed.
