Configuration Process Flow
AlterPath Manager Configuration Process Flow
You must perform the First Time Configuration process (as shown in the AlterPath Manager Configuration Process Flow” chart) using the Linux shell through the serial console interface. Once completed, you may perform the rest of the configuration process and all daily administration procedures through the AlterPath Manager web interface.
To configure all your devices with the AlterPath Manager (using the web interface), you must first configure the devices such as console servers or a KVM switch (menu options: “Devices” and “Profiles”), and then configure the consoles or ports associated with the devices (menu option: “Consoles”).
The “Firmware” option is used to update firmware and to enable you to select from different versions of firmware, or to view information about a particular firmware.
Once you have configured the consoles, you can define users and assign them to access the target consoles (menu option: “Users”), and define the triggers that will create alarms and send email notifications (menu option: “Alarm Trigger”) to users.
