MergePoint
QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE
The following instructions will help you install your
MergePoint service processor manager. Should you require
further assistance, please contact Avocent Technical Support.
Rack mounting or placing the MergePoint SP
1
manager
When installing the MergePoint SP manager in a rack,
note the MAC address printed on the bottom label of the
appliance.
Connecting power to the MergePoint SP
2
manager
Verify the appliance power switch is off. For AC models,
plug the power cord into the appliance and plug the other
end into a grounded AC power source. For DC models,
wire the terminal block to separate DC power sources.
Turn on the power switch. For more information on wiring
DC models, see the MergePoint SP53XX SP Manager
Installer/User Guide.
NOTE: For appliances with two power supplies, connect
each supply to a separate power source.
Connecting to the network

Connect an Ethernet cable from the primary
10/100/GE (Gigabit Ethernet) port to the network. To
configure a secondary 10/100 Ethernet port, including
setting up failover, see the installer/user guide.

Configuring the MergePoint SP manager
The MergePoint SP manager requires an IP address
before use. The MergePoint SP manager ships as a DHCP
client, and can obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
If you are using a DHCP server, proceed to step 5.
-or-
If your network environment does not have a DHCP server,
configure the appliance via a DSView
®
Command Line Interface (CLI).
To configure using the DSView 3 management
software:
Use the DSView 3 Add Units Wizard to add the
MergePoint SP manager to the DSView 3 software.
During the Add Unit Wizard, select Unit does not have
IP address. Enter the MergePoint SP manager network
information and select the unit MAC address from the list.
To configure using the CLI:
Connect a terminal or a server running a terminal
emulation program to the console port using the included
DB-9 to RJ-45 crossover cable.
a. Open a terminal session with the settings: ANSI
emulation, 9600, 8, N, 1, no flow control.
b. Log in as root and use the default password
avocent.
c. Enter the passwd command and change root's
password.
WARNING: For maximum security, the default username
and password should be changed.
d. Enter the cli command.
e. Enter network specific information with the set
command. For example, to activate the primary
Ethernet interface, configure a static IP address and
basic network parameters, enter:
set network interface eth0 method static address
<IP_address> netmask <netmask> gateway
<gateway>

(Optional) Connecting service processors to the
5
MergePoint SP manager
NOTE: The MergePoint SP manager can administer
service processors connected to the same physical
network it resides on. For maximum security, connect
service processors directly to the MergePoint appliance
private network ports.
Connect a standard Ethernet cable from any private
Ethernet port on the MergePoint appliance to any of the
following types of Ethernet ports:
• A dedicated Ethernet port on a service processor
• A dedicated Ethernet port on a blade server
managing multiple blade service processors

Configuring the service processor
Using your service processor's documentation, enable the
service processor and assign it an IP address.
CAUTION: Depending on your system configuration,
service processors that are not connected directly to
the MergePoint SP manager may be accessible from
a public network. To prevent unauthorized access, it is
recommended that you change the preset username and
password for the service processor.

If you wish to host service processors on multiple
subnets, you can configure them through the DSView 3

software or MergePoint SP manager web interface. See
the installer/user guide for details.

Configuring private subnets
At least one subnet is required to allow target devices
connected to the private Ethernet ports to communicate
with the MergePoint SP manager.
Configure an IP address for the private subnet. The
MergePoint SP manager uses this IP address to
communicate with the service processors. This IP address
should be within the range of the private subnet and be
configured as the service processor's gateway to ensure
full two-way communication.
After configuring a private subnet, it is recommended that
the administrator assign each target device an IP address
within the range of the private subnet. If a target device
is not assigned an address with the range of the private
subnet, the MergePoint SP manager attempts to contact
the target device using the primary interface IP.
Multiple private subnets are not required, but may be
used.
NOTE: The MergePoint SP manager does not normally
route between the private subnets. The private subnets
are an added layer of security and separation between
connected service processors.
(Optional) Adding the MergePoint SP manager
9
to the DSView 3 management software
Use the DSView 3 Add Units Wizard to begin managing
MergePoint SP managers with the DSView 3 software.
See the DSView 3 help (keywords: adding units) and the
MergePoint SP53XX appliance plug-in documentation for
more information.
