To configure the unit, you must connect the VIP X1600 XF directly to a computer using a
network cable. This is because communication via the network is not enabled until the
Identity and Password parameters have been set and successfully authenticated (see
Section 5.38 Advanced Mode: Advanced, page 77).
5.2 Configuration Menu
The SETTINGS page provides access to the configuration menu, which contains all the unit's
parameters arranged in groups. You can view the current settings by opening one of the
configuration screens. You can change the settings by entering new values or by selecting a
predefined value from a list field.
There are two options for configuring the unit or checking the current settings:
Basic mode
Advanced mode
In Basic Mode the most important parameters are arranged in seven groups. This allows you
to change the basic settings with just a few entries and then put the device into operation.
Advanced Mode is recommended for expert users or system support personnel. You can
access all unit parameters in this mode. Settings that affect the fundamental functionality of
the unit (such as firmware updates) can only be altered in the advanced mode.
All parameter groups are described in this chapter in the order in which they are listed in the
configuration menu, from the top of the screen to the bottom.
All settings are stored in the module's memory so that they are retained even if the power
supply is interrupted.
!
CAUTION!
The switch used for the network must support the multi-host operation when using 802.1x
authentication and must be configured so that a VIP X1600 XF with several modules can try
several hosts for communicating over the network.
!
CAUTION!
The settings in the advanced mode should only be processed or modified by expert users or
system support personnel.
