5. Remote Management

In order to facilitate Remote Management, the StorageLoader is equipped with an
Ethernet interface and a built in web server. The Remote Management Interface
(RMI) can be accessed with a standard web browser, such as Internet Explorer,
Mozilla or Opera.

5.1 Remote management configuration

To be able to start the StorageLoader Remote Management Interface, the
StorageLoader must obtain a valid IP address. By default, the StorageLoader will
connect to a DHCP server to dynamically configure its network interface. If a DHCP
server is available, the loader will get an IP address automatically after booting.
If no DHCP server is available, select Static mode and enter a legal IP-address,
netmask and default gateway with the buttons. In the browser's address field, enter
the IP address of your StorageLoader. See section 4.4.3, Remote Management setup
for details.

5.1.1 Quick start guide

The following is intended to help you get a new StorageLoader online as quickly as
possible. If you need to enable the RMI to perform a memory dump of a faulty
StorageLoader, please see section 5.1.2, Enabling the RMI without rebooting
instead.
1. Connect the StorageLoader to the network and reboot it.
2. From the front panel, check the dynamic IP address by accessing View data →
Remote management info → Dyn IP addr. state.
2.1. If the response is a valid IP address, the remote management interface is
ready and can be accessed at the URL http://IP-address/, e.g.
http://192.168.0.5/.
2.2. If the response is 0.0.0.0, enable remote management from the front panel
by setting Setup → Remote management setup → Allow remote
management to Allowed. Check the network cable and the DHCP server
and reboot.

5.1.2 Enabling the RMI without rebooting

1. Connect the StorageLoader to the network.
2. Configure network:
2.1. If you want to use a static IP address, use the front panel to enter a valid
static IP configuration, see section 4.4.3, Remote Management setup.
2.2. If you want to configure the network subsystem dynamically, from the front
