Configuring Management Console Access Parent topic

Before you can perform the initial deployment of Deep Discovery Web Inspector, you must log on to the Command Line Interface (CLI) and configure access to the Deep Discovery Web Inspector management console.
The following procedure explains how to log on to the CLI and configure the required network settings:

Procedure

  1. Power up the appliance if it is not already up.
  2. To make a direct connection, connect a monitor and keyboard to the Deep Discovery Web Inspector appliance.
    The appliance's command line interface is displayed on the monitor. You can log in to the CLI and perform basic tasks.

    Note
    Note
    The default management IP address / subnet mask is 192.168.252.1 / 255.255.0.0.
    You should reserve the IP address 192.168.252.1 for Deep Discovery Web Inspector use only to prevent conflicts and possible configuration failures because of duplicate IP addresses on the network.
    • Host name
    • IPv4 address
    • Subnet mask
    • IPv4 gateway
    • Preferred IPv4 DNS
    • Alternate IPv4 DNS
