Typically, it is not necessary to log in to the Multi-Port Monitor appliance after you install the hardware and software. Most administrative tasks can be performed from the web interface. However, you access the appliance directly for the following tasks:
The daemon is required to start or restart other processes. The daemon cannot be started or stopped from the web interface.
A shutdown or reboot is not required, even for an upgrade. However, to take the computer offline, use the login procedure and commands to shut it down correctly.
Shutting down the appliance during a load or merge operation can corrupt the local database. Stop the database before you shut down the appliance.
Use the attached keyboard and monitor to log in to the appliance directly. You can also log in from a remote system using a secure shell (SSH) client such as PuTTY, which runs on Microsoft Windows.
Follow these steps:
The Linux login screen opens.
The Linux command-line interface opens.
