Introduction
Once the just:in linux appliance is wired installed and set up (power, network, video signals) and set up (network) correctly, it is possible to connect to the just:in linux server and to start with the initial setup. In order to To achieve that, the following steps are required:
Check the IP-Address, which will be used for the communication between the just:in linux server and the macOS-based Just Control application.
Install Just Control on a macOS-based client system, which has access to the just:in linux appliance (via the network).
Establish the connection to the just:in linux appliance with he the macOS-based Just Control client application.
IP-Address
Normally Generally, the just:in linux appliance has multiple network connections. One gets used is for communication purposes, such as interacting with just:control Just Control and another one will be used for the storage system connection. To access the just:in linux server with the macOS-based Just Control application, the IP - Address of the communication port is required (normally the “em1” Ethernet interface is normally used for that purpose).
Please contact your network administrator or either your local ToolsOnAir reseller VAR or the ToolsOnAir team directly, if you do not know the current IP - Address of the just:in linux server.

If there is currently Should temporarily no internet access on your systemconnection be available, copy themacOS-based Just Control application from the internal just:in linux RAID to the macOS Applications “Applications” folder. Therefore To do so, mount the internal just:in linux RAID on a macOS-based system (via “Finder -> Go -> Connect to Server” or with the Finder keyboard shortcut “Command-K”). Type in the IP - Address of the just:in linux appliance, enter the credentials (User: justin, Password: justin), and select the tools share point. The Just Control application can be found here.
