About this Guide
This Quick Start Guide walks you through installation, configuration, and local
operation. For more details, refer to the user manual.
To download the user manual, go to ftp://ftp.blackbox.com/anonymous/
manuals/L/LES1101A-R2_USER_rev2.pdf or visit the Black Box Web site
(www.blackbox.com) and enter LES1101A-R2 in the search bar.
Step 1: Check kit contents.
• 1101 Secure Device Server
• This printed quick start guide
• CD-ROM containing SDT Connector and PortShare software
• Universal input 12-VDC power pack
Step 2: Connect the hardware.
• Plug the power pack into the AC power receptacle and connect the DC power
cable to the 12-VDC power socket on the LES1101A-R2.
• Connect the LES1101A-R2 LAN port to your network.
• Connect your serial device to the serial port on the DB9 male connector.
• By default, the LES1101A-R2 is configured in RS-232 mode. RS-232, RS-422,
and RS-485 are software-selectable. Simply press the button to Reset the unit
back to factory default (RS-232 mode),

Step 3: Set up the serial device server.
The default serial device server IP address is 192.168.0.1 (subnet mask
255.255.255.0).
With a Web browser on any computer that is connected to the serial device server
through the LAN:
• Enter https://192.168.0.1 into the address bar.
NOTE: The LAN-connected computer must have an IP address in the same
network range (192.168.0.xxx) as the serial device server. If this is not
convenient, you can use the ARP Ping command to set the IP address (refer
to the user manual for details). The serial device server also has its DHCP
client enabled by default, so it will automatically accept any network IP
address assigned by any DHCP server on your network—and will then
respond at both 192.168.0.1 and its DHCP address.
• Log in using the default system user name root and the default password
default. A Welcome screen listing the basic configuration steps is displayed.
• Select “System: Administration,” enter and confirm a new System Password,
and click “Apply.”

1101 Secure Device Server Quick Start Guide
• To assign your serial device server a static IP address or to permanently enable
DHCP, select “System: IP” then “Network Interface” and check “DHCP” or
“Static” for configuration method.
Step 4: Configure serial and network devices.
• Select “Serial & Network: Serial Port,” which will display the label, mode, and
protocol options currently set.
• To configure the serial port, click “Edit.”
Serial & Network: Serial Port screen.
• Configure the Common Settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits, and flow
control) to match those of the serial device being controlled.
• By default, the LES1101A-R2 is configured in RS-232 mode. RS-232, RS-422, and
RS-485 are software-selectable. Simply press the button to Reset the unit back
to factory default (RS-232 mode).
• By default, the serial port is in console server mode. Refer to the user manual for
configuring other modes (terminal server, SDT, serial bridging).
• In Console Server Settings, select the protocols (Telnet, SSH, TCP, RFC2217,
unauthenticated Telnet) that are to be used for the data connection to the
device server and the serial port.

• You may also wish to set the logging level, which specifies the details of the
communications that will be logged and monitored for this serial port. By
default, logging is disabled.
• Click “Apply.”
Step 5: Add new users.
NOTE: We recommend that you set up a new Administrator user (in the admin
group with full access privileges) and log in as this new user for all ongo-
ing administration functions (rather than continuing as root).
• For each new user, select “Serial & Network: Users & Groups” and click “Add
User.”
• Enter a username and enter and confirm a password, and nominate the accessi-
ble hosts and accessible ports the user is allowed to access.
Serial & Network: Users & Groups screen.
• To grant limited access to the management console, check the “User” group.
To grant full access to the management console, check the “Admin” group.
By default, the user is granted no management console access.
• Click “Apply.”

Step 6: Advanced configurations.
The serial device server offers many more advanced functions including:
• The Alerts & Logging: Alerts facility monitors the serial port, user logins, and
managed devices (network hosts, UPS, PDU, etc). A broad selection of trigger
events (such as data patterns, temperature, or battery levels) can be specified.
When triggered, a warning e-mail, SMS, Nagios®, or SNMP alert is sent to a
nominated destination.
• Extensive management of UPSs and RPCs using Open Source NUT and Power-
man tools. The Manage: Power facility enables both administrators and regu-
lar users to monitor and control attached PDU power strips, and servers with
embedded IPMI BMCs.
• Historical logs of all communications with serial and network attached man-
aged devices, system activity, UPS and PDU power status, environmental sta-
tus, etc. The level of logging is set as ports and devices are configured. Alerts
& Logging: Port Log allows this history to be saved locally or remotely. Logs
can be viewed from the Status and Manage menus.
SDT Connector
On the CD-ROM you will nd the SDT Connector software tool. Once you have
configured the serial device server, this tool provides you with secure, point-and-
click access to the serial device server and all the attached devices.
Refer to the provided SDT Connector Quick Start or the user manual on your
CD-ROM for details on remote management of the serial device server and
connected devices.
Port Share
On the CD-ROM, you will also nd PortShare software, which enables applica-
tions on your Windows®or Linux®PC/server/virtual server to control serial port
devices attached to a remote LES1101A-R2 serial device server.
To use PortShare, configure the LES1101A-R2 serial port in console server mode
and specify the appropriate protocol to be used (either RFC2117 or RAW).
Refer to the provided PortShare Quick Start or the user manual on your
CD-ROM for more details.
