Network Setup

In addition to a Command Line Interpreter ("CLI"), VersaSync offers a web user interface

("Web UI") that is used to configure and monitor the unit. Described below is how to setup com

munication with the WebUI.

Note: VersaSync supports zeroconf: If you have a DHCP enabled network, you

can use zeroconf for initial setup. For more information, see "Zero Configuration

Setup" on page6. Otherwise follow the instructions below for conventional setup.

Default settings:

VersaSync network settings default to DHCP, i.e. if the unit is connected to a DHCP server via

ETH0 or ETH1, it will accept an assigned dynamic IP address.

In order to apply a static IP address, DHCP must be disabled, as described below. (Your net

work administrator will provide you with an IP address you can use for the VersaSync unit.)

Setup procedure:

1. Hardware connections

Table 1-1: Connections: Overview

Requirement Action Evaluation kit cable

Power up Connect 12 VDC to the

power connector.

Attach a cable and apply 12 VDC to the plug

labeled "Main" (CA08R-CRPB-0002)

USB con

nection

Connect USB to the Multi

I/O connector.

Connect the USB plug to a PC with a terminal

emulator program (CA08R-CRUB-0002)

Network

connection

Connect at least one of the

two Ethernet connectors to

a network.

Connect the RJ45 jack labeled ETH0 or ETH1

to a network hub/switch or directly to a PC

(CA08R-CRET-0002)

a. POWER: Connect power to the unit: If you are using the Evaluation Kit, con

nect the barrel connector of the 12 V transformer cable to the power cable

labeled "Main". Connect the 110V/240V connector of the 12 V trans

former to an outlet. The unit will start up (the power LED will pulsate.)

b. USB: Connect the Multi I/O connector to the VersaSync unit. If you are

using the Evaluation Kit, connect the Multi I/O USB output to a PC. Install a

terminal emulator program on the PC (e.g., TeraTerm®or PuTTY®).

c. Ethernet: Connect the Ethernet cable to the ETH port of the unit. If you are

using the Evaluation Kit, connect at least one of the two I/O cable Ethernet

CHAPTER 1•VersaSync Evaluation Kit Quick Reference Guide Rev. 51

ports (ETH0 or ETH1) to a network switch/hub, or to the PC mentioned

above (using a standard Ethernet patch cable, or a crossover cable.)

2. USB driver

Turn on the PC; new hardware (the USB interface) will be detected. The cor

rect driver should be installed automatically. If not, download the driver

from www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm, and install it manually:

Download the driver and the instructions for your operating system

(or follow the instructions below.)

Using the Windows Device Manager, locate the new USB hard

ware under Other devices, right-click on it, and select Update

Driver Software…

Locate the downloaded driver on your local hard disk:

The driver will be installed:

2CHAPTER 1•VersaSync Evaluation Kit Quick Reference Guide Rev. 5

3. Network address

a. Start the terminal emulator program on the PC. Select the COM port that is

assigned to the USB interface:

Access the CLI via ssh or telnet: The required port configuration is 115200

8N1:

Press the Return key, and enter the login credentials:

Note: The default login credentials are:

User name =spadmin

Password =admin123 (will not be displayed on the screen)

b. If you are on a DHCP-enabled network, retrieve the IP address assigned to

VersaSync by typing the net4 command. The command should return the

CHAPTER 1•VersaSync Evaluation Kit Quick Reference Guide Rev. 53

network settings, including the IP address assigned to the unit. Take note of

the IP address.

You can use this IP address to login to the VersaSync Web UI and then set

a static IP address, subnet mask and gateway (see Step 4. below).

Or, continue with the network configuration via the CLI, as described

under Step c. below.

Note: For your reference, the command helpcli produces a

list of available commands. Press the space key to display the

next page, or the bkey to display the previous page.

Note: Should it become necessary to leave the VI editor

mode (indicated by a command line prompt ":"), press Q, or

Ctrl C.

c. To disable DHCP type dhcp4set <x> off , (x being 0/1 for ETH0

and ETH1, respectively). Example:

dhcp4set 0 off

d. Type net4 to confirm that DHCP has been turned off. Setup a new IP

address by typing ip4set <x> <IP address> <subnet

mask> and –if required– gw4set <x> <gateway address>. For

a table with subnet mask values, see manuals.spectracom.com.

4. Login to the Web UI

a. On a PC connected to VersaSync via ETH0 or ETH1, start a web browser.

b. Navigate to the IP address obtained in Step 3.b, or assigned in Step 3.d.

c. Login to the VersaSync Web UI, using the same credentials as mentioned

above.

d. If so required, you can also change VersaSync's IP configuration (address,

subnet, gateway, ...):

4CHAPTER 1•VersaSync Evaluation Kit Quick Reference Guide Rev. 5

i. Navigate to MANAGEMENT > Network Setup.

ii. In the Ports panel on the right, click the GEAR button next to ETH0 or

ETH1: The Edit Ethernet Port Settings panel will open.

Note: If you have not disabled DHCP yet, uncheck

Enable DHCPv4, but DO NOT click Submit until after

completing all IP configuration settings.

e. Click Submit, and start a new Web UIsession by entering the new IP

address into your browser, and logging into the Web UIagain.

f. You have now established a network connection with VersaSync. Continue

with other configurations e.g., NTP settings, references, outputs, etc. See

the user manual: manuals.spectracom.com.

CHAPTER 1•VersaSync Evaluation Kit Quick Reference Guide Rev. 55

Zero Configuration Setup

As an alternative to the conventional network configuration, VersaSync can also be setup using

the zero-configuration networking technology ("zeroconf").

Note: Zeroconf only works on DHCP-enabled networks.

When using zeroconf, a TCP/IP network will be created automatically, i.e. without the need for

manual configuration: Once VersaSync's ETH connector is connected to a hub, you can directly

access the VersaSync WebUI, using a standard web browser, without any configuration.

This is made possible because zeroconf utilizes these technologies:

Automatic allocation of network addresses for all connected devices

Automatic distribution and resolution of computer hostnames

Automatic detection of all available network services.

For more information on zeroconf and the multicast Domain Name System, see

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_DNS.

Zeroconf Requirements

Prior to using zeroconf, ensure the following requirements are met:

Your LAN network must have DHCP enabled.

Your VersaSync unit must have DHCP enabled for its ETH0 port (this is the factory

default setting)

Note: Zeroconf is only supported on the ETH0 port.

Check the serial number label on the side of the unit, and write down the last 6 digits of

the MAC 0 address e.g., "0C 00 19"

Windows 7/8 users should install Bonjour Print Services, otherwise access to *.local

addresses will not be possible.

Windows 10 already supports mDNS and DNS-SD, hence there is no need to install

additional software.
