N1200-320 4Gb Network Storage Router user and service guide 29
Visual manager
The network storage router allows any standard Internet Web browser to view and change the network
storage router’s configuration with the Visual Manager interface. Information is dynamically generated in
an HTML format by the network storage router, so that Web browsers can access it.
To access Visual Manager, enter the IP address of the network storage router into the Address field of a
Web browser. Or, you can enter a URL using a host name defined by the user—for instance,
http://HPN1200-3204Gb (but the user must define the host name on the DNS server first for this to work).
To make changes to network storage router settings, use standard keyboard and mouse controls to input
information, and then select the Submit button to send the changes to the network storage router.
A user name and password are required before any changes can be submitted. The default user name is
root and the default password is password. HP recommends that you change the user name and
password as soon as possible (see ”User name and password” on page 38).
Other than dynamic mapping changes, any other changes will not take effect until the next time the
network storage router reboots. You can force the network storage router to reboot by selecting the
Reboot option.
For more information about the Visual Manager interface, refer to ”Visual manager access” on page 31.
NOTE: For the VM interface’s dynamic display of the network storage router configuration to be
presented properly, use version 6.2 or later of Netscape’s browser on non-Solaris platforms, or Netscape
version 6.2.3 for Solaris platforms. If using Internet Explorer, use revision 6.0 or later.
FTP
The network storage router includes support of File Transfer Protocol (FTP) for updating firmware, saving
trace buffers, and backing up/restoring of configuration settings. FTP functionality is described in more
detail in ”Using the Command Line Interface” on page 59. There is also an FTP Utility available within
Visual Manager (VM) that is described in ”FTP utility access” on page 51.
Inband SCSI-3 commands
The network storage router supports a set of SCSI-3 commands that can be received as FCP commands
over the Fibre Channel ports. When using these commands, they must be sent to a tape LUN or network
storage router LUN of the network storage router. For more information, see ”Inband SCSI-3 commands”
on page 109 and ”HP N1200-320 4Gb Network Storage Router features” on page 11.
