supports SSLv2 SSLv3, TLSv1, SSHv1 and SSHv2 for data encryption. In addition, IP address filtering
function is provided for protecting unintentional data streams to be transmitted to the Parani-MSP1000.
The dual Ethernet, fail-over feature may be also helpful to the users who want to apply this box in
mission-critical fail-safe applications.
The Parani-MSP1000 series is based on embedded Linux system and it supports versatile Python
script engine and corresponding libraries. Hence, users may customize the function of the box easily
by using Python script. Users may run their Python script in 2MB user space inside of the box, and
then run various system and network functions.
The Parani-MSP1000 provides you with full-featured system management functionality of system
status display, firmware upgrade, remote reset and system log display by using various ways such as
telnet, SSH, serial console port or web. You can easily configure and administrate the ParaniMSP1000, with the full-featured management functions of status monitor, remote reset, error log
monitor and firmware upgrade by using Telnet and serial console port under the password protection
support.

Note *:
Bluetooth v2.0 supports improved AFH function. AFH function is to mitigate the interference
between WiFi and Bluetooth radios by automatically avoiding the active WiFi channel from
Bluetooth link. However, AFH does not provide a complete solution making WiFi and Bluetooth
work together in harmony. It is highly recommended for users to test their wireless system
enough before deployment since the overall system performance is affected by various
environmental factors such as dist ance between them.

2.3. Connecting the Hardware
This section describes how to connect the Parani-MSP1000 to your equipment for initial testing.
- Connect the power source to the Parani-MSP1000
- Connect the Parani-MSP1000 to Ethernet switch
2.3.1. Connecting the power
Connect the power cable to the Parani-MSP1000. If the power is properly supplied, the [Power] lamp
will light up solid green.

Figure 2-1 Connecting the power to the Parani-MSP1000
2.3.2. Connecting to the network
Plug one end of the Ethernet cable to the Parani-MSP1000 [Eth0] port. The other end of the Ethernet
cable should be connected to a network port. If the cable is properly connected, the Parani-MSP1000
will have a valid connection to the Ethernet network. This will be indicated by:
The [Eth0] blink to indicate incoming/outgoing Ethernet packets.
Figure 2-2 Connecting a network cable to the MSP1000
2.4. Configurations
The Parani-MSP1000 provides several paths to set up the box to make it work properly as expected.
z RS232 Serial console
If users want to set up the box before the network set-up, they can do it directly by using RS232
serial console cable provided in the package. This method is used when users want to set up the
box initially or without network connection. The menu-driven user interface provides limited
functions for initial configuration.
12
z Remote console
Users who require a menu-driven interface remotely can utilize Telnet (port 23) or SSH (port 22)
connections to the Parani-MSP1000 using Telnet or SSH client. The menu-driven user interface
provides limited functions for initial configuration.
NOTE : Please note that Parani-MSP1000 supports only the SSH v2, so user must use the SSH
client which is able to support SSH v2.
z Web
Remote users who want to use a web browser to configure the Parani-MSP1000 can connect to
the Parani-MSP1000 using a conventional web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Firefox
Navigator. Easy-to-use menu-driven user interface provides full-featured configuration functions
for the mean-time configuration purpose.
2.4.1. Configurations using RS232 serial connection
1) Connect one end of the console cable to the console port on the Parani-MSP1000.
Figure 2-3 Connecting a system console cable to the Parani-MSP1000
2) Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port of the user’s computer.
3) Run a terminal emulator program (i.e. HyperTerminal). Set the serial configuration
parameters of the terminal emulation program as follows:
9600 Baud rate
Data bits 8
13
Parity None
Stop bits 1
No flow control
4) Press the [ENTER] key.
5) Enter your username and password to log into the Parani-MSP1000. The factory default user
settings are as follows.
Login: root Password: root
6) After login, users can use various shell commands in the CLI(Command Line interface). For
details on the CLI, refer to the chapter 9, “CLI Guide”.
7) “editconf” command will allow you to enter the text-menu driven interface and the menu
screen in #editconf
[root@MSP1000 /]# editconf

From the main menu screen, the users may select a menu item for configuration of the ParaniMSP1000 parameters by selecting the menu number and pressing the [ENTER] key. In the submenu
screen, users can configure the required parameters guided by online comments.
NOTE: Be sure to perform “save” and “apply” command before you exit from editconf menu
program. All the parameters can be stored into the non-volatile memory space of the box, but the
settings will not be stored until users perform “save” command on the menu. All the configuration
change will be effective after entering “apply” command on the menu.
2.4.2. Configurations using Ethernet connection
The IP address of the Parani-MSP1000 must be known before users can access the box using the
Remote console. The default IP address of the Parani-MSP1000 is 192.168.161.5. Once users know
the IP address of the box, they can access to it either by using telnet/ssh program or web browser.
The default user name and password is as same as the serial console interface as follows.
root : root
1) Telnet/SSH Access
The steps for accessing telnet/ssh interface is exactly same as the ones in serial console access.
Please take steps from 5) to 8) in chapter 2.4.1 to get into the menu-driven user interface.
2) Web Access
The Parani-MSP1000 supports both HTTP and HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) protocols.
