I’ve been preaching the value of a bootup baseline for almost 30 years and its never hard to find another example to prove my point.
In this example, I received a Liveaction LiveWire Edge device https://www.liveaction.com/products/livewire/ and the first thing to do is to connect it to your network, determine its IP and login in using a Web Browser of your choice.
In this video I show you how I used Wireshark to figure out its IP address and log into the device.
Bootup baselines have a ton of value and you should save the traces for future reference and training.
For example, if you require a specific DHCP option, how will you know if the option was supported by the DHCP server and if it actually worked properly?
Enjoy
