Powering the Unit

included power supply and do not use if damaged. The LED should then light up
and the unit will boot. From power-up until access via the management interface,

Initial Configuration
There are 3 alternative ways of performing an initial configuration of NOMAD:
1. Via the built-in wireless management network
2. Preconfigured IP address of the probe management port
3. Via serial console emulated over USB
Note: Settings take effect immediately after applying. For this reason, it is
recommended to check settings carefully before applying, as you may lose
wireless connection to your VB-NOMAD, due to incorrect settings. If this happens
use the wired network interface or a USB serial port as backup.
