Installation Manual

Management Card can be configured to ignore DHCP offers that do not

encapsulate the APC cookie in DHCP option 43 using the following

hexadecimal format. (The Card does not require this cookie by default).

Option 43 = 01 04 31 41 50 43

where

– the first byte (01) is the code

– the second byte (04) is the length

– the remaining bytes (31 41 50 43) are the APC cookie.

See your DHCP server documentation to add code to the Vendor

Specific Information option.

Note: By selecting the Require vendor specific cookie to accept

DHCP Address check box in the Web interface, you can require the

DHCP server to provide an “APC” cookie which supplies

information to the Management Card: Administration >

Network>TCP/IP>ipv4 settings.

Local access to the command line interface

You can use a computer connected to the serial port on the front of the Network

Management Card to access the command line interface.

1. Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses

that port.

2. Use the provided serial cable (APC part number 940-0299) to connect the

selected port to the serial port on the front panel of the Network

Management Card.

3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal) and configure the

selected port for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow

control. Save the changes.

4. Press

ENTER, repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt.

5. Use apc for the user name and password.

See “Command line interface” on page 13 to finish the

configuration.
