Unlock the Device
Every time a Roving Edge Device is booted, it boots into a locked state. You must unlock the device using an unlock passphrase to use the device.
The passphrase was created in one of the following ways:
-
When the device was self-provisioned on-site. See Provision a Device: Set Up Credentials.
-
On older Roving Edge Devices and Ultra Devices, the passphrase was created when the node was created in your tenancy. See Creating a Roving Edge Infrastructure Device 1 Node or Creating a Roving Edge Ultra Node.
-
Connect your local computer to the device serial port. See Cable the Roving Edge Device.
-
Access the device serial console using terminal emulation on your local computer. See Set Up Terminal Emulation.
You're prompted to provide the unlock passphrase.
In the serial console, select Unlock Device
.-
Enter the passphrase.
The device is unlocked, and the serial console menu is displayed.
