6 Configuring the Library
After you have installed the hardware described in the previous chapters, you are ready to configure
your library settings. A Setup Wizard helps you get started configuring your library, and the menu
commands on both the front panel interface (FPI) and the remote management interface (RMI) allow
you to re-configure your library at any time.
About the Setup Wizard
When you first power on the library, the front panel interface (FPI) displays the Setup Wizard, which
walks you through the initial configuration of the library's operational settings. These include network
settings that enable you to access the library from the remote management interface (RMI). You must
begin with the Setup Wizard on the front panel, although you have the option to complete the Setup
Wizard on the RMI.
The Setup Wizard prompts you to enter the network settings that allow the RMI to access the library.
Once this step is complete, you must choose to either complete the wizard locally (on the FPI) or
remotely (on the RMI).
Configuring the library is not a one-time process. The Setup Wizard is simply an aid to assist you with
the initial configuration. You can always return to the Setup Wizard, or use commands on the Setup
menu, to modify all library settings, including network settings.
Note
Power cycling (powering the library on and off) is not necessary in order to
configure the library.
Using the Default Administrative User Account (Administrator)
When you power on the library for the first time, it is not necessary to log in to use the front panel
interface (FPI). You can start using the Setup Wizard immediately. When the library is powered ON
for the first time, the password protection to the FPI is disabled. As long as there is no FPI password
enabled, regardless of how many times the system is re-started, the library will have this “free
access”.
Once you enable the FPI password, you will always need the password to access the FPI.
A User Name and password is always required to access the system via the Web client. It is not
possible to access the library remotely without entering a password. The library ships with a default
administrative user account for the RMI. When you see the Login screen on the RMI, type the
Administrator in the User Name field, leaving the Password field blank. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
