Connecting Micro Webserver

This section describes more explicitly what you need to do to connect the Micro Webserver to your network and power source.

Connecting Micro Webserver to the Network

Remove the Micro Webserver from its shipping container and place it on a flat surface. Connect Micro Webserver's 10BaseT (UTP) port located on the back panel as shown below to an active 10BaseT HUB port using a standard straight-through 10BaseT cable.

Setting Switch Settings

The switch settings on the Micro Webserver do not need to be changed from the default mode except to manually download new parameters or to add additional SCSI devices such as CD-ROM drives.

The following table describes the switches and their function.

Resetting Micro Webserver Firmware

You may need to reset the parameters stored in NVRAM to the factory default states. Once an IP address is set, you must reset the firmware to use the BOOTP server program. To reset the firmware, follow the procedure below.

Caution Resetting the firmware will cause you to lose all data previously set in the configuration NVRAM.

  1. Place the S/W switch UP (the switch that is most distant from the SCSI connector).
  2. Power on the Micro Webserver. The yellow Ethernet LED in the back flashes on and off, and the front LED flashes from green to red. While these LEDs are flashing, put the S/W switch down (i.e., return it to its original position).
  3. You have about 10 seconds to place the S/W switch down, or the system boots normally, and the procedure must be restarted from step 1.

  4. The LEDs stop flashing. You are now running the FLUP (Flash Update Program) program (the system is listening for a serial or TFTP download of new firmware).
  5. Toggle the S/W switch 12 times (6 up + 6 down) or more.
  6. The NVRAM data is cleared. An informational message to this effect appears on the serial line, although a serial device is not needed to run this procedure.
  7. Place the S/W switch in the down position.
  8. Power the Micro Webserver off and on to reboot with cleared NVRAM. The IP address is now set to 0.0.0.0 and BOOTP is enabled.
