Out of the box, the Opmantek VM requires no configuration changes to wor= k, however you may wish to make changes so it complements your particular n= etwork environment. Items such as using HTTPS, setting the hostname or conf= iguring the IP stack are all configurable.
ssh and console access credentials are here: Default Cre= dentials (Passwords) for NMIS8 and NMIS9 VMs
The VM ships with support for secure https access enabled, and you can u= se https instead of http in any of the URLs mentioned.
However, the included certificate-key pair is the same for all VM downlo= ads, and it is a self-signed certificate (for "opmantek.local"). This will = cause your browser to display security warnings.
If you want to use https access operationally it is highly recom= mended that you replace this shared default key-certificate pair w= ith your own (or use an automated certification authority like https://l= etsencrypt.org/ for example).
The Debian team has an excellent wiki page dedicated to customizing the = network configuration; this page is available in several languages:
https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration<= /p>
At this point the VM has DHCP enabled, and therefore it will receive a d= ynamic IP address suitable for your environment. The easiest way to access = the VM at that point is from the virtualization software terminal. So go ah= ead and boot the VM. After the VM is finished booting you will be welcomed = by a login prompt. First, log in using the default c= redentials.
If it's desirable to customize the network settings we offer the followi= ng options:
/etc/hosts<=
/code>, /etc/sysconfig/network
, /etc/sysconfig/iptables<=
/code> and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/<interface_name>.
Root's ho=
me directory contains 2 example network configurations, one for static IP's=
and one for DHCP. Copy the one you require to /etc/syscon=
fig/network-scripts/
and edit it to suit:

Be sure to verify the following settings:=
Next restart the network service for the = setting to take affect. In our testing the DHCP address was still pre= sent, and the static IP assigned as a secondary (this can be seen with the = 'ip address' command). The DHCP address can be removed by using the '= ip address command del' command or be rebooting the system.
