▼Connect the Management Cables
1. Route the management cables to the gateway so that they do not interfere with other cables, with
servicing the gateway, or with other systems.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable between the gateway NET0 port and the network that is configured with a
DHCP server.
Connections to the management controller are made through DHCP.
3. Configure your DHCP server to provide a host name and address to the gateway.
Note – If a DHCP server is unavailable, the gateway will default to static IP 169.254.0.36/16. Alternatively,
you can connect a USB-to-serial adapter cable between the gateway’s USB port and a terminal device. This
connection also provides communication with the management controller. The terminal device must be
configured 115200 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit.
▼Power On the Gateway
1. Route the power cords so that they do not interfere with other cables, with servicing the gateway, or with
other systems.
2. Plug the power cords into the receptacles at the rear of the gateway chassis and into separate power
sources.
Note – To provide redundancy, connect each power supply to a separate power source. The system can operate
with only one power connection, but there is no redundancy in that case.
The AC LED on each power supply lights green. In a moment, the OK LED lights green, power is supplied,
the fans spin up, and the management controller boots.
■If the AC LED does not light, there is something wrong with supplied power.
■If the OK LED does not light, there is something wrong with the power supply.
■If the Attention LED on a power supply lights amber, there is a fault in the power supply.
■If the Attention LED on a fan lights amber, there is a fault with that fan.
3. Begin network communication with the management controller.
where gateway_name is the host name provided by DHCP. The gateway-name might be the IP address.
If you do not see this output or prompt, there is a problem with the DHCP configuration, network
communication, or the management controller.
