Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 Gateway
Connecting the Gateway to a Power Source
Connecting the Gateway to a Power Source
This section describes how to supply power to the gateway. The gateway is equipped with an
autoswitching power supply that supports 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz.
Warning
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed
ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are
uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
Procedure
Step 1 Plug a power cord into the power socket on the rear panel of the gateway.
Step 2 Connect the power cable to a grounded AC outlet.
Step 3 Turn the power on.
Accessing the Gateway Administrator Interface
The Gateway Administrator is a web interface that allows you to view and configure the gateway
hardware and application parameters. You can use the gateway interface to:
Set administrative parameters to define access to the gateway
Set gateway application parameters that specify how the gateway processes incoming and outgoing
calls
Set chassis operating parameters for Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 Gateway modules
installed in the top slot of a Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 chassis
Before You Begin
These are the requirements for accessing the gateway Administrator web interface:
A Java-compliant browser. Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 or later is recommended.
The gateway IP address or a web link to the gateway.
Administrator level-access
The required user name and password.
Note For first-time installation, you must assign an IP address to the gateway using a serial port connection
before you can access the web interface. For more information, see the “Setting the IP Address” section
on page 2-11.
Procedure
Step 1 Launch your browser and type the IP address or the name of the gateway.
For example, http://125.221.23.44 or board_name.
