Chapter 7: Using SmartPath EMS VMA

Change the cluster name for your SmartPath APs (default: blackbox), change your SmartPath EMS VMA login password, and set

the time zone where you are located, which might be the same time zone as that for SmartPath EMS VMA or a different one. If

you have an entitlement key, click Enter Key. The following dialog box appears.

Figure 7-6. Entitlement key screen.

For a physical appliance with Internet access, select “Enter Entitlement Key.” Copy the entitlement key text string that Black Box

sent you in an e-mail message, paste it in the Entitlement Key field, and then click “Enter.” You also have the option of installing a

SmartPath EMS VMA license key, which is useful if you are working with an appliance in a location that does not have Internet

access, such as a test lab. If you already have a license, select “Install License Key,” copy the license key text string previously sup-

plied by Black Box in an email message, paste it in the License Key field, and then click “Enter.”

For SmartPath EMS Online and SmartPath EMS VMA Virtual Appliance, copy the entitlement key text string, paste it in the

Entitlement Key field, and then click “Enter.” SmartPath EMS Online transmits the entitlement key to the on-line Black Box

entitlement server, which replies with all licenses associated with that key.

If you do not have an entitlement key or license key yet, click “Continue.” You can access the GUI for a 30-day period without a

key. To request an entitlement key or license key, you can send an e-mail to orders@blackbox.com. Make sure to include your

customer name and sales order number in the request. When you receive the key, click “Enter Now” in the prompt displayed at

the top of the GUI (shown below) or click Home > Administration > License Management. Copy the key from the e-mail and

paste it in the appropriate field.

Figure 7-7. GUI.

You are now logged in to the SmartPath EMS VMA GUI. Later, after completing the Global Settings page in the next steps, you

can check details about the installed entitlement key and licenses on the Home > Administration > License Management page.

You can also enter more licenses there if necessary.

7. SmartPath EMS VMA can operate in one of two administrative modes: Express and Enterprise. Express mode (the default)

provides a simple set of configuration components designed for managing a single network. Enterprise mode provides

configuration components for managing multiple networks that require more advanced settings. Because the examples

throughout this guide are based on Enterprise mode, switch to that mode by clicking Home > Global Settings and selecting

Enterprise (recommended for more advanced networks).*

*If you choose Express, you can later switch to Enterprise mode, and SmartPath EMS VMA will automatically convert your settings

from the structure used in Express mode to that used in Enterprise mode. However, after choosing Enterprise, you cannot later

switch to Express mode and preserve your settings. To change from Enterprise to Express mode, you must erase the database,

and then choose Express after you log back in.

8. After selecting Enterprise mode, you have the option of changing the root admin password for logging in to SmartPathAPs.

SmartPath EMS VMA uses this password when making SSH connections and uploading a full configuration to SmartPathAPs.

The default root admin name and password is admin and blackbox. To set a different password, enter it in the New SmartPath

AP Password and Confirm Password fields. The SmartPath AP password can be any alphanumeric string from 5 to 32

characters long. To see the password string that you enter, clear Obscure Password.
