E
Connect the XX-1800G serial administration port to a computer, using the supplied cable and adapters.
Use the following settings when connecting to the device: 115200 baud rate, 8 bit, no parity, 1 bit stop.
Login, using the following initial credentials:
Default name: profitap
Default password: profitap
Follow the prompt to create an administrator account. After creating the new admin account, the session will close. The
factory default user (profitap) remains active for direct connections to the unit's serial management port.
(Optional) Login with the newly created admin account, and manually enable the network interface (using the
system.network.set command) for the unit to become accessible remotely via web and SSH.

MANAGING XX-1800G USING XX-MANAGER
After the initial setup has been completed, the XX-Manager web interface can be accessed via the device's Ethernet management
port [2], either locally or over the network.

E
Connect the XX-1800G's Ethernet management port [2] to a network or computer, using an RJ45 Ethernet
cable. Keep in mind, in case you connect the unit directly to a computer, manual IP policy must be applied for
both the unit and the computer. Additionally, if the computer network interface is only 10/100M capable, a
twisted pair special cable must be used instead of a normal patch cable.
To access the XX-Manager interface, type https://<ip_addr> in your browser (Firefox or Chrome recom-
mended) with <ip_addr> being the units’ static or DHCP provided IP.
On success, override any browser certificate alert to continue. XX-1800G prompts with its Status Page.
Login, using the credentials configured during the initial setup (see: step 3).
The main XX-Manager screen is displayed. For more information on XX-Manager, please refer to the
Installation and Configuration Manual.

MANAGING XX-1800G THROUGH CLI OVER SSH
After the initial setup has been completed, the management CLI can be accessed via the device's Ethernet management port [2],
either locally or over the network.
