3. Enter the URL address of the HP TopTools Remote Control card, which
should be one of the following:
◊ If connecting via LAN, enter either the card’s IP address (for example:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/), or a host name, if one has been assigned to
the HP TopTools Remote Control card in your DNS server (for
example: http://cardname.companyname.com).
◊ If connecting via modem, enter the card’s PPP IP-address that you
entered when you ran the HP TopTools Remote Control BIOS setup
(for example: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/).
Once you are connected, the TopTools Remote Control Identity page is
displayed in your browser window (see Figure 5-1).
4. Click the Configuration Tab. The login prompt is displayed.
5. In the User Name field, enter a valid administrator name. For your first
login, the factory default name is ADMIN.
6. At the password prompt, enter the password that belongs to the
administrator name. For your first login, the factory default password is
ADMIN.
NOTE The user ID and the access password for HP TopTools Remote
Control software are case sensitive. To avoid a potential
security breach allowing someone to log in using the defaults,
your first task should be to set up an administrator for the
card. Under Configuration|User, create a new user assigned to
the "Administrator" group and assign a new password. Then
delete the default ADMIN user account.
7. Once logged into the HP TopTools Remote Control web interface, create
your user groups and set your communication and notification
preferences. If you have HP TopTools Device Manager, you can perform
some administration actions on multiple cards at once. See online help for
details (click the "?" button in the upper right corner of the browser
window).
You are now logged on to HP TopTools Remote Control. For a description of
features, see the section, "HP TopTools Remote Control Features and Functions,"
in Chapter 2.
