    Fig. 1 Rear View of original Console Server 3200 - notice Control Card to far right The SCS3230 upgrade replaces the CONTROL card of the 3200 with a new 10/100 BaseT NETWORK and CONTROL card which includes a Linux-based operating system, and also replaces the NETWORK and TERMINAL cards of the 3200 with CHANNEL EXTENDER cards.
  • Page 10: Upgrade Description

    ConsoleServer 3200 System Upgrade Description The SCS3230 uses most of the same cards as the CS3200, and uses the CS3200 chassis. The SCS3230 is below. Notice the SCS3230's NETWORK/CONTROL card to the far right. MODEM CHANNEL CHA NNEL EXTEND E R EXTENDER EXTENDER Caution! Replace with same type and rating fuse.
  • Page 11: Hardware Features

    SCS3230, creating an easy-to-use way to access system resources. The SCS3230 consists of eight device card slots, two switch card slots, four access card slots, one modem slot and one Network/Control slot. The power supply slot contains two independent power supplies for redundant operation.
  • Page 12: 3230 Network/Control Card

    ConsoleServer 3200 System 3230 Network/Control Card The SCS3230 offers the following benefits and features over the conventional CS3200 product: Linux-based Secure Console Server using OpenSSH v2 ID / Password Security, configurable access rights One RS-232 Terminal port (for your local Console)

    Backup and Restore Commands The SCS3230 system is fully compatible with the "Backup and Restore" capabilities of the CS3200, so transferring your user database from your existing CS3200 into the new SCS3200 hardware is supported.
  • Page 16: 2: System Overview

    ConsoleServer 3200 System System Overview For simplicity, we will discuss the features and capabilities of the SCS3230 as if it were a new and different system, not merely an upgrade to a ConsoleServer 3200. The SCS3230 is designed to operate as closely to the original ConsoleServer3200 as possible from a user's perspective, but still provide the capabilities needed for the secure server environment.
  • Page 17: Security Passwords

    An optional MODEM connection is also available, however its connections are not 'secure' and its use is not recommended except in those instances when security will not be compromised by dial-in access using the modem. The SCS3230's modem connection is not subject to the Linux security controls of the other access ports.
  • Page 18: 3: System Components

    3.1.1 Power Supply Module The SCS3230 may be equipped with either an AC power module or a DC power module. The power module may be field-swapped (although is not hot-swappable) if the available power source requirements change.
  • Page 19: Device Cards

    A Lantronix Company Device Cards The Device cards are fully compatible with the SCS3230 application. The SCS3230 requires version 4.03 Build 01 (or higher) of the Device Card binary firmware. Firmware updates are downloadable from the Lightwave FTP site (ftp://ftp.lightwavecom.com).
  • Page 20: Channel Extender Cards

    There is no access to the administration functions through the terminal card. The SCS3230 may have up to 3 Terminal cards, depending on system requirements. In some applications, the existing Terminal Card may be required for local serial connection to one of the Device Ports.
  • Page 21: 3200 10/100 Network Cards

    The Modem Card is used primarily in the Console Server 3200 systems, however, it does not provide or support any of the "secure" features of the SCS3230 system. It is not secure in the sense that the modem circuitry is not subject to the encryption used for secure SSH transactions, a primary reason for updating to the SCS3230.
  • Page 22: 4: Installation Instructions

    If you are updating a CS3200 system, you may want to save your existing database from the CS3200 and copy it into the SCS3230. To do so, you will use Backup to save the database, and then Restore to copy it into the SCS3230's memory.
  • Page 23: Move Database From Your Cs3200 To Scs3230

    1. Log in as the sys admin on TERM port on the NETWORK / CONTROL card. 2. Make sure that there are no users logged in to the SCS3230. If any users are currently logged on, have them log out or force them off the system by using the FORCELOGOUT command.
  • Page 24: To Restore From A 3200 To A 3230

    4. Using the communications program, send the text file containing the backup records to the SCS3230. Be sure to use text mode when transferring the file. The file download should not take too much time; less than a minute is typical at 38.4K baud. After the download is complete, the SCS3230 will re-zero all unused records.
  • Page 25: Lci Update

    Type lsmod and look for mdser. If mdser is not present type insmod mdser. If you wish to change the card binary file (*.bin) stored on the SCS3230, copy the update file (filename.bin) to the 3230 and place in the “/lci/bin” directory.
  • Page 26: Connecting To The Term Port

    Locate the serial port on the terminal or computer and determine what type of connector is used. The cable kit included with the SCS3230 contains each of the following: one RJ45 serial cable, an RJ45 to male DB9 adapter, an RJ45 to female DB9 adapter, an RJ45 to male DB25 adapter, and an RJ45 to female DB25 adapter.

    The device used to connect the ConsoleServer to the network (i.e., a hub or switch) must support this configuration. Materials: SCS3230 network port network point-of-connection (i.e., a switch or hub) RJ45-terminated Cat 5 cable (standard LAN cable) Configure the ConsoleServer network parameters to the desired values as outlined in section 6.5.

    The following tables list the adapter part number and port configuration for some common equipment types that may be connected to the SCS3230. Note that in some cases, an additional cable or adapter is included with the equipment to convert a proprietary pinout to an EIA-standard pinout.
  • Page 30 Lightwave adapter for serial console port Attach the Lightwave adapter to the serial console port. Connect the Cat 5 cable to the adapter. Connect the other end to the SCS3230 device port. Check that the device port and serial console port communications parameters match, and synchronize them if they do not match.

  • Page 33: 6: Scs3230 Setup Script And System Administration

    SCS3230 Setup Script and System Administration The SCS3230 uses a script file to assist in the initial setup and configuration of the 3230 system. The script is intended for the first time the unit is turned on, in order to get the system 'up and running' as quickly as possible.
  • Page 34: Power-Up Sequence And Basic Use Of The Administrator Functions

    'wake up'. Total boot-up time is generally about 3 minutes. When the SCS3230 is first installed and powered up, it must be configured through the serial terminal port. Connect the terminal port to a terminal device or computer using a terminal emulation program.

    When this prompt is displayed, the user is in monitor mode. There is no direct communication between the user and the server. Any output from the server is saved to a buffer that may be accessed by the user (see Section 7.11, Using the Buffer), but the user may issue no commands to the server.

    Any user that can log in and has listen permission for a device port may listen to a session on that device port. If the user does not have permission to listen to a server, the SCS3230 will display the message NO ACCESS TO DEVICE CHANNEL.
  • Page 84: Direct Mode

    The user's terminal will then be directly connected to the server, and will act as if the terminal was physically connected to the server. The SCS3230 displays the last page of the device buffer along with a system information message indicating which device port is selected as the user enters direct mode.
  • Page 85: Using The Buffer

    ¦ DISPLAY HELP +-------------------------+ Each device port saves the output of a server to a FIFO buffer. Each buffer can store up to 64K of data, giving approximately 100 text pages. However, the actual amount of pages may vary according to the data. The user must be in monitor mode to view or clear the data stored in the buffer.
