Removing and Installing the Front Bezel
Purview PV-A-300 Appliance Installation Guide 10
Removing and Installing the Front Bezel
The PV-A-300 appliance comes with an optional front panel bezel that can be attached to
the front of the chassis by snapping the bezel onto the chassis handles. A key lock allows
you to lock the bezel in place so that front panel controls cannot be used. System status
indicators can still be monitored with the bezel in place.
Removing the Front Bezel
To remove the front bezel:
1 Unlock the bezel if it is locked.
2 Remove the left end of front bezel from rack handle.
3 Rotate the front bezel counterclockwise to release the latches on the right end from the
rack handle.
Installing the Front Bezel
To install the front bezel:
1 Lock the right end of the front bezel to the rack handle.
2 Rotate the front bezel clockwise till the left end clicks into place.
3 Lock the bezel if needed.
NOTE
Before installing the bezel, you must install the rack handles. See “Installing the
Appliance into a Rack” on page 1-11.

Installing the Appliance into a Rack
Purview PV-A-300 Appliance Installation Guide 11
Installing the Appliance into a Rack
A rack mounting kit and Installation Guide are included with the PV-A-300 appliance. The
rack mounting kit allows you to install the appliance into a four-post rack cabinet. Refer to
the Installation Guide for complete installation instructions.
If you are installing the appliance in a rack:
1 Install the rack handles by aligning a rack handle with the two holes on each the side of
the appliance and attaching each handle to the appliance with two screws as shown in
Figure 3.
Figure 3: Installing the Rack Handles
2ReadtheInstallation Guide included with the rack mounting kit.
3 Install the rails and mount the controller in the rack as instructed.
If you are table mounting the appliance, ensure at least 6 cm of clearance on all sides of the
appliance for proper ventilation.

Configuration
Once the PV-A-300 appliance is physically installed into a rack, you need to connect a
monitor and a USB keyboard, connect the power cord and network cable, and power it on
(see Figure 1 on page 1-7 and Figure 5 on page 1-8).
After the appliance boots and the appliance installation is complete, you must go through
the initial configuration process described in this chapter.
This chapter also includes information on how to change your appliance settings following
your initial configuration, and how to upgrade the Purview application software. For
information on reinstalling the Purview appliance software, see Chapter 3.
Pre-Configuration Tasks
The following information is needed prior to executing the configuration steps in the next
section:
• Appliance hostname, IP address, and netmask
• Default Gateway IP address
• Name Server IP address and domain name
• NIS (Network Information Services) Server IP address
• GRE tunnel source and destination IP addresses
• Network Time Protocol (NTP) server IP address
In addition, you will need to obtain the appropriate NetSight software license(s) prior to
launching the NetSight applications. You will be prompted to enter a license for any
unlicensed application that is launched. (When you purchased NetSight, you received a
Licensed Product Entitlement ID. This Entitlement ID allows you to generate a product
license. Refer to the instructions included with the Entitlement ID that was sent to you.)

NTP is used to configure the date and time to ensure accuracy of time
values for SNMP communications and logged events. Up to 5 server
IP addresses may be entered if NTP is used.

Do you want to use NTP (y/n) [y]? y
Please enter a NTP Server IP Address (Required): 144.131.10.120
Would you like to add another server (y/n) [n]? y
