Start a Windows Remote Desktop Connection
To start a Remote Desktop Connection session to the XGS12 system:
1. If you do not know the IxOS IP address, ping the unit's host name.
The host name appears on the label on the back of the unit.
The ping command will return the IxOS IP address.
2. From the management workstation, start a
Remote Desktop Connection
session with the chassis, using the
IP address that was returned by the ping command.
In the Windows Security window, provide the following credentials:
l
User name: ixia
l
Password: the last part of the host name. For example, if the host name is xxxx-X1234567, the password
will be X1234567.
After you select OK, Remote Desktop Connection establishes the connection and displays the chassis desktop.
