Setting Up the Webcache for Management 71Setting Up theWebcache forManagementYou can quickly set up the Webcache for management in two ways: Setting Up Using the Web Interface — Connect a managementworkstation to the Webcache over an IP test network or directly via across-over cable. For further information, see “Setting Up Using theWeb Interface” on page 71.or Setting Up Using the Command Line Interface — Connect amanagement workstation to the Webcache over an IP test network orconnect a terminal or terminal emulator to the console port of theWebcache directly, or through a modem. For further information, see“Setting Up Using the Command Line Interface” on page 74.CAUTION: You must configure the basic settings of the Webcache bycompleting the Getting Started wizard before you introduce theWebcache to your live network.

Thisdefault address allows you to run the Web interface without any initialconfiguration of IP addresses. The default IP address of the Webcache is192.168.1.253.Figure 24 Setting Up Over the Test NetworkTo connect the Webcache to the test network: The client machine must be in the same subnet as the Webcache to beable to access it using the default IP address.Client Machine WebcacheSuperStack 3®3C16116Webcache 3000Power/Self testActivityCache Storage Status green = okyellow = failed green = 100 Mbpsyellow = 10 MbpsLink Status31 2Cache Storage Status32Link StatusActivityLANLANLAN WANSwitch/HubClient Machinedua1611-5aaa04.book Page 71 Friday, November 29, 2002 8:56 PM
