4.1.1 Connecting to the EN-4000

The EN-4000’s management system displays in a browser window. A management

terminal (a computer) connects to the EN-4000. That management terminal can run

on any platform (for example, a Windows, Mac, or Linux platform) that supports a

web browser.

Note: You can also use a command line interface (CLI) to manage the EN-4000.

However, we recommend using the web interface to manage the EN-4000.

The LAN ports on the EN-4000’s rear panel (Figure 4-1) are on a single private

network. The EN-4000 software includes a DHCP server that assigns IP addresses

to devices connected to those LAN ports. Devices connected to those LAN ports

see the gateway address 192.168.1.1 representing the EN-4000.

The EN-4000’s WAN port (also on the rear panel) is on a separate network from

its LAN ports. The EN-4000’s WAN port is a DHCP client, by default.

4.1.2 Logging In

1Make sure you have a terminal available to manage the EN-4000, and make

sure the terminal’s power is on.

2Connect the EN-4000 to an AC power adaptor or a DC power source.

❖The EN-4000 powers on.

3Use an Ethernet cable to connect your management terminal to an Ethernet

LAN port (in the set labeled eth1) on the EN-4000’s rear panel.

Caution: Do not connect the management terminal to the EN-4000’s WAN

port (labeled eth0).

❖The LAN port assigns an IP address to your management terminal.

4On the management terminal, open a web browser.

5In the browser's address field, type the EN-4000’s gateway IP address

192.168.1.1 (or, if you prefer, type http://192.168.1.1), and press the

console’s Enter key (Figure 4-2).

Figure 4-2. Browser Address Field

Note: If the browser asks whether the EN-4000 router (192.168.1.1) may

set cookies, answer Yes, or Yes for the Session, or something similar.

Caution: Do not block cookies for the EN-4000. Otherwise, you might not

be able to manage the EN-4000.

❖The browser navigates to the specified IP address and displays the

EN-4000 Log-In Screen (Figure 4-3).

Note: The Username field might display the user name. (Figure 4-3 shows

the default user name root.)

Caution: The EN-4000 management system uses JavaScript in its

browser-based display. A message to enable JavaScript (similar to the

message in Figure 4-4) might display in your browser.

If you see the message in Figure 4-4, do the following:

• On the browser menu, open Tools or Options (or an equivalent menu

item in your browser).

• In the browser’s menu system, Enable JavaScript, and Save that setting.

• Right-click on the browser screen, and select Refresh, Rewrite, or

Reload (or the equivalent for your browser).

❖The EN-4000 Log-In Screen is redisplayed, without a message to enable

JavaScript.

6Type your user name and password in the appropriate fields of the EN-4000

Log-In Screen. Use the default log-in values:

• The default user name is root.

• Its associated default password is encore!1.

Note: You may wish to change the user name and password in the future.

Check with your network administrator for all names and passwords.

7Then press the console’s Enter key or select the screen’s Login button (to

the lower right of the Log-In Fields).

❖The system accepts your log-in. Then the EN-4000 Status Overview

Screen is displayed (Figure 4-5). This screen provides an overview of the

EN-4000’s status.

Note: If the EN-4000’s WAN port is connected to a network, you may see

the WAN port’s assigned IP address. (The WAN port is a DHCP client.) In

Figure 4-5, the IP address assigned to the WAN port is 192.168.101.109.

On the EN-4000 management screens, the top row of tabs indicates the

management areas.

System

4.2.1 Saving or Discarding Changes

Buttons to Reset, Save, or Save & Apply are displayed in the lower righthand

corner of EN-4000 configuration screens. You can use them as described below:

• Select the Save & Apply button to save changes that take effect immediately.

• Select the Save button to save changes that will take effect after the EN-4000

is rebooted.

• Select the Reset button to discard changes you have made but have not yet

saved, and to see the screen with its values before you made those changes.

Note: The browser will display a message in the upper right corner of its

screen when there are unsaved changes in the configuration (Figure 4-8).

Figure 4-8. Message about Unsaved Changes

Note: The browser will also display a message if you use the EN-4000

screens to reboot the chassis before you have saved changes in the

configuration (Figure 4-9).

Figure 4-9. Message to Save Configuration before Rebooting

Caution: If you use a rebooting process that is not under the control of the

EN-4000 management system’s screens—for example, if you close the

browser or if you manually reboot the chassis—you will not see a message

about unsaved changes in the configuration. If you wish to save changes,

make sure you select the Save button or the Save & Apply button before

you close the browser window, or manually reboot the chassis, or use the

screens to reboot.

Note: If you close the browser without saving changes in the configuration,

the previous configuration is used when you reopen the EN-4000

management system in the browser.

The most recently saved configuration will be used only after the EN-4000

chassis has been restarted (rebooted). For that reason, the message

“Unsaved Changes” will persist in the upper right corner of the EN-4000

management system screens until the EN-4000 chassis has been restarted.

4.2.2 Restarting (Rebooting) the EN-4000

There may be times when the EN-4000 needs to be restarted. We recommend

using the menu system to restart the EN-4000, because that provides a

controlled approach to restarting. Any processes that are running will be shut

down properly before the router restarts.

Caution: In general, do not manually restart the EN-4000 by disconnecting

it from its power source and then reconnecting it to power. That method of

rebooting might interrupt processes running on the EN-4000.

1To restart the EN-4000, select the System management area.

2Then select the Reboot tab.

❖The System Reboot screen is displayed (Figure 4-10).

Figure 4-10. EN-4000 System Reboot
