TLS—To access the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager web interface, you must enable TLS 1.0 or later in your browser. • Supported browsers Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager supports the latest versions of the following browsers: •...
About the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager web interface controls The left pane of the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager web interface can be hidden from view at any time. Hiding the left pane gives more space for the main pages to be displayed, but hides the navigation tree.
• Name—The name of the active Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager network interface. Host Name—The name assigned to the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager subsystem. By default, the host name is • EL8000CM, followed by the system serial number. This value is used for the network name and must be unique.
2. Enter the Subsystem Name (Host name). The host name is the DNS name of the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager subsystem. This name can be used only if DHCP and DNS are configured to connect to the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager subsystem name instead of the IP address.
4. Configure the DNS Configuration settings. 5. To save the changes you made on the IPv4 Settings page, click Apply. 6. When you are finished configuring the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager network settings on the Network tabs, restart the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager system.
Enable IPv6 in Auto Mode Enable this option to configure Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to use an IPv6 DHCP server (if found). If no IPv6 DHCP server is available, IPv6 automatically falls back to using SLAAC. This option is enabled by default.
Firmware version—The currently installed version number of the firmware. • Updating firmware While firmware can be updated using components uploaded to the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager Repository, you can also update firmware directly. Prerequisites Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager Admin privilege Procedure 1.
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the repository storage capacity. Exceeding the storage capacity will force all open sessions to the Edgeline EL8000 Chassis Manager to log out. If this happens, log in again and delete stored files until the repository storage is below the maximum capacity.
