Installation on OpenStack cloud

TBD

Changing the root password

1. Use the console to login into the server
   1. user: root
   2. password: root
2. Change the password to something stronger than root:

# passwd
New password: ........
Retype new password: ........
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

Assigning IP address

1. Assign a IP address to the Ethernet interface having network connectivity. Example if the NIC's name would be eth0:

 # ip link set eth0 up
 # ip addresss add 192.168.178.30/24 dev eth0

Accessing the TSBC-SW web portal

1. Open a web browser to the IP of your server, on port 12358. Example if your server address is 192.168.178.30, the URL would be:
   http://192.168.178.30:12358
2. You should get to the TSBC Configuration Wizard
   

From here, you can go to Web Portal Initial Configuration Guide to continue the installation, and/or optimize your server to get the maximum out of your server.
