Pre-Install Preparation

You should complete the following steps before going on-site to perform an installation.

Configure your dashboard network

1. Login to https://ui.readylinks.io. If this is your first time, create a new account.
2. Claim your switches. You will need your ReadyLinks mac address (found on the device) which looks like 0013xxxxxxxx.
3. Find the network to which you plan to add your switches or create a new network.
4. Go to the map view and place each switch on the map by clicking and dragging it to the location where you plan to mount it.

Check and configure firewall

If a firewall is in place, it must allow outgoing connections on particular ports to particular IP addresses. The most current list of outbound ports and IP addresses for your particular organization can be found on the firewall configuration page in your dashboard.

Installation Instructions

1. Fix the brackets on the side of the device using 8 * M3 flat head screws.

2. Install the GLx chassis in a 19" rack with M6 screws and nuts.

3. Connect the power supply to the unit.
