a. Connect one end of a standard Cat5 Ethernet cable to one of the console ports on the DSX.
b. Connect the other end to a Raritan Nulling Serial Adapter (p/n ASCSDB9F, ASCSDB9M,
ASCSDB25F, ASCSDB25M) as appropriate.
c. Connect the adapter to the console port on the target device
Important Note: Many Cisco and Sun devices have console ports with non-standard RJ-45 connections.
Most can be connected to the DSX with a “serial rollover cable.” This is NOT a standard Ethernet cable
or crossover Ethernet cable. If you have misplaced the rollover cable that came with your Cisco or Sun
device, you can purchase one from Raritan (Part Number CRLVR-15 or CRLVR-1).

Connect the Target Devices
The DSX comes in a variety of models. The model shown above contains two
power outlets, one LAN interface, and 32 console ports. Your model may differ,
but this will not affect the following installation instructions.
Install the DSX in your chosen location. Rack mounting is recommended but
not required.
Connect the power cord to the power connector on the DSX and to an
external power source. If your unit has two power connectors, you can
connect the second power connector to a backup power source.
Flip the power switch to turn the DSX unit on. The unit performs a hardware
and rmware self test. The software boot sequence starts and is complete
when the light goes on and remains on.
Connect your target servers or other serially managed devices to the
console ports on the DSX.

Congure the DSX Using a Browser
You can congure the DSX using a Web browser or a command line interface
(CLI). If you prefer a CLI, skip this section and proceed directly to the next
section.
Connect a computer to the LAN interface on the DSX using a crossover
Ethernet cable. If your DSX has two LAN interfaces, use LAN1.
Make sure the computer has a route to the DSX’s default IP address
(192.168.0.192). Open a console window and enter the route print
command. If the default IP address is NOT on the Active Routes list, do
the following:
a. On a Windows machine, type ipcong and note your IP address. Then
type: route add 192.168.0.192 <installation computer IP address>
b. On a Unix or Linux machine, type ifcong and note your IP address.
Then type:
route add 192.168.0.192 <installation computer IP address> -interface
c. Type: ping 192.168.0.192 This should produce a reply. If it does not,
check the physical connection between the computer and the DSX,
and make sure you executed the route add command correctly.
3. Open a browser and enter this URL: http://192.168.0.192
4. When the Login window appears, enter the default username (admin)
and password (raritan). Use all lowercase letters.
5. You will be prompted to change the default password. Do so now, and
be sure to remember this password for future login.

6. Choose Setup > Network. In the Network Basic Settings panel, select an IP conguration method (
DHCP is enabled by default), give DSX an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address on your
LAN. You can give the unit a name to help identify it (up to 64 characters, but special characters and
spaces are not allowed.) and a domain (required to send SMTP messages).
