6. Turn on the NetScaler appliance.
When the appliance starts, it no longer has the previous working configuration.
Therefore, the appliance is reachable only through the default IP address of
192.168.100.1/16, or through the console port.
7. Log on to the default IP address by using a web browser, or connect to the serial
console by using a console cable, to perform the initial configuration.
8. Upload a platform license and any optional feature licenses, including universal
licenses, to the NetScaler appliance. For more information, see the licensing
chapter of the "Citrix NetScaler Getting Started Guide."
9. Once the correct NetScaler software version is loaded, you can restore the working
configuration. Copy a previous version of the ns.conf file to the /nsconfig directory
by using an SCP utility or by pasting the previous configuration into the /nsconfig/
ns.conf file from the NetScaler command prompt. To load the new ns.conf file,
restart the NetScaler appliance by entering the reboot command at the NetScaler
command prompt.
