Initial configuration walk-through
Use the information from your EVO:RAIL Network Configuration Table when you do the following:
1. Browse through the EVO:RAIL IP address (for example, https://192.168.10.200:7443). If you view a
browser message about security certificates, click Advanced, and then click Proceed anyway. The
EVO:RAIL welcome splash page is displayed.
2. Click Yes, Let’s Go!. Read through the license agreement, and accept the EVO:RAIL End-User
License Agreement (EULA).
3. If you click Customize, you can configure hostnames, IP addresses, VLAN IDs, and passwords. Most
fields have default values to make initial configuration quick and easy. Just Go configures EVO:RAIL
according to the default JSON configuration file and go to Step 11. To upload your own JSON file,
click
Customize, and then click Upload Configuration.
NOTE: There is no save option in EVO:RAIL. All configuration changes are automatically
