Q: Setting up Time Capsules on a Network
I have purchased 2 x 3tb Time machines and a Mac server running El Capitan, the mac server will be used to manage printing and ipads.
The time machines have been purchased to back up all the Macs at my workplace.
I can't run these over wireless they have to be run via ethernet so i have connected them to my Cisco 2960 switch.
The Mac server has picked up what looked like a mac address and asked for a password i put the default password in and it started to backup.
I assume this unit has been picked up via DHCP and thats why it's working.
How can i change the name of these units from a number to a name?
How can i change the default password to my own?
I downloaded the latest airport utility 6.3.1 for Mac from Apple downloads, however it wont run on El Capitan.
Xserve, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
