Lantronix EMG 8500 Manuals

1 1. HARDWARE OVERVIEW 3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION The front console port allows a dumb terminal or PC with terminal emulation software to locally access management functions and connected devices. The device ports allow simple and flexible connections to serial devices using adapters and a standard CAT5 cable. Connect one end of the CAT5 cable to the device port and the other end to an adapter that attaches to the serial console of the target system. For example, to connect a PC to the console port of the EMG 8500, you need the RJ45 to DB9F Adapter and a standard CAT5 cable which is supplied with the unit. The default communication parameters for the device ports and console ports are: • 9600 baud • 1 stop bit • 8 data bits • No flow control • No parity 2.

The attached equipment requires an available console, AUX, or serial port (RS-232). Dual Ethernet or dual SFP ports provide in-band management access, allowing remote management of equipment using familiar tools such as Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH). Two user-swappable connectivity module bays on the back of the EMG unit provide out-of-band management access via LTE cellular modem FRU, or a local terminal can be used. In the event that the IP network is unavailable, the EMG 8500 unit can fail-over to the secondary connectivity interface. Once connected, the user has access to the server or IT equipment’s command line interface (CLI) via the console port to perform maintenance or management tasks. *DIO adapter is available and sold separately. All EMG 8500 models are compatible with a variety of equipment, including: • Switches • Routers • Firewalls • Servers • UPS systems • PBX systems • Telecom switches • PDU (supported brands) 1. Install the unit on a desktop or other flat, horizontal surface. You may optionally mount the EMG 8500 in a 19-inch rack or on a wall using the optional mount kit accessories. Warning: If rack mounting the EMG, do not block the air vents on the sides of the unit. If mounted in an enclosed rack, it is recommended that the rack have a ventilation fan. 2. Connect the equipment to the numbered device ports on the front of the unit using the appropriate cables and adapters. 3. Connect the unit to the network using the upper network port (Ethernet 1). 4. Connect the power cord to apply power. The top front LED turns green to indicate that power is ON and at least one of the Ethernet ports has a link or both Ethernet ports are disabled. The LED blinks red if none of the enabled Ethernet ports has a link. 5. Wait about a minute and a half for the boot process to complete. The first time you power up the EMG unit, Eth1 tries to obtain its IP Address via DHCP. View this IP Address by running Lantronix Provisioning Manager application or by connecting a terminal to the console port to access the command line interface.
