Accessing the Photon 300D
You can access the appliance using a VGA monitor and USB keyboard, using SSH to the
Management port, or using a virtual console over the iDRAC port. The ports for these
connections are all at the rear of the appliance, as illustrated above.
VGA Console Access
For VGA console access, connect a display device to the system using one of the two VGA ports
(one is in the front and the other is in the rear. Then, connect a USB keyboard to one of the USB
ports (one is in the front and two are in the rear).
SSH Access
The default management IP address on the appliance is 192.168.1.100/24, and the default
gateway IP address is: 192.168.1.1. The default username and password are as follows:
 Username: aella
 Password: changeme
For SSH access to the appliance:
ssh -l aella 192.168.1.100

The iDRAC feature can be licensed directly from Dell; a free trial is available. There is an iDRAC
Direct port on the front of the appliance and a dedicated iDRAC network port on the back.

5. Change the DNS IP address:
set interface management dns <new DNS server IP address>
6. Confirm your changes with the show interface, show gateway, and show dns commands.
7. Set the host name, which is displayed in Stellar Cyber and should be unique for each sensor:
set hostname <new hostname>
8. If necessary, set the proxy HTTP server:
set proxy http://<proxy IP address:port>
9. Optionally assign the tenant (if you skip this, the sensor is assigned to Root Tenant):
set tenant_id <Tenant ID from Stellar Cyber>
