Wireless LAN Array
46 Installing the XS-3900
Establishing Communication with the Array
The XS-3900 can be configured through the Command Line Interface (CLI) or the
graphical Web Management Interface (WMI). You can use the CLI via the serial
management port, the Fast Ethernet port, or either of the Gigabit Ethernet ports.
You can use the WMI via any of the array’s Ethernet ports.
Figure 32. Network Interface Ports
Using the Serial Port
If using the serial port to make your connection, use serial settings of 8 bits, no
parity, 1 stop bit (8N1) and a speed setting of 115200 baud. Use the
communication package of your choice.
Using the Ethernet Ports
If the array is booted and does not receive DHCP addresses on either the Fast
Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet ports, the Fast Ethernet port will default to an IP
address of 10.0.0.1 and both Gigabit Ethernet ports will default to 10.0.1.2.
If the array is connected to a network that provides DHCP addresses, the IP
address can be determined by the following two methods:
1. Examine the DHCP tables on the server and find the addresses assigned
to the array (Xirrus MAC addresses begin with 000F7D).
2. Query the array using the CLI via the serial port. Use the show summary
ethernet command to view the IP addresses assigned to each port.
Logging In
When logging in to the array, use the default user name and password (the
default for both is admin).
