CHAPTER 2: I NSTALLATION 3Chapter 2: InstallationThis section describes the steps necessary to configure Dominion SX for use on a local area network (LAN). Allnew Dominion SX units come with default network settings, illustrated in the table below. Once units are connectedto the network, these default settings will allow the user to configure Dominion SX for normal use.There are three separate tasks you must complete to use Dominion SX on the network: Hardware Installation, InitialSoftware Configuration, and Dominion SX Deployment, usually completed in this order, and each described in thischapter.Hardware Installation describes how to connect the Dominion SX unit to a computer to perform the initialconfiguration of the unit. This step requires an additional computer that will be used to log into the Dominion SXunit and configure it for the first time in the next section.Initial Software Configuration describes how to connect to Dominion SX in its default state and to configure it foruse in a specific network environment.Dominion SX Deployment describes how to install a Dominion SX unit on the network once the Initial SoftwareConfiguration is complete.Pre-Configuration NotesThe following list includes information that you will be required to supply to complete the configuration of theDominion SX. Obtain all required configuration information prior to performing the configuration steps outlinedbelow. If you are uncertain of any information, contact your system administrator for assistance.Network Information:• Raritan Unit Name: The name of this unit, a generic term for the Dominion SX unit. This can be 64 charactersmaximum, no minimum, no spaces.• IP address: The IP address of the unit, as directed by your network administrator.• IP subnet mask: The IP subnet mask for the unit, as directed by your network administrator.• IP gateway: The IP gateway for the unit, as directed by your network administrator.• Port Address: Any number from 2000 to 2400, as directed by your network administrator; default value is 23.Choosing a number other than 23 can potentially improve security.Hardware InstallationFigure 2 Rear PanelPrimary LAN ConnectionRJ45 serial portsModemSelfTest and Factory Reset LED
