Setting the IP Address

This section describes how to use the serial port to configure the unit with an IP address and other address information.

The serial port on the EMP front panel is used to assign a new EMP an IP address. You can assign the IP address before or after you connect the hardware to the network.

Procedure

Step 1 At the prompt, enter N to configure default network port values and press Enter.

The default network properties screen appears as follows:

Enter IP Address for default Interface

Without leading zeros <172.20.35.110:ffff0000>

Enter Default Router IP Address for default Interface

Without leading zeros <current default Gateway IP address>:

Step 2 At the Enter IP address for default interface prompt, enter the IP address you want to assign to the EMP followed by the subnet mask, in the format <IP address:subnet mask> and press Enter.

Note You must enter the subnet mask in the hexadecimal format.

Step 3 At the Enter Default Router IP Address prompt, enter the IP address of the default Gateway that you want the EMP to use and press Enter.

Allow the unit to complete the reboot process. A new emulator session begins.

Step 4 At the Main menu, do one of the following:

Enter the letter for the set of parameters that you want to configure.

Enter Q to save your changes and allow the device to complete the boot process.

Caution Configuration of any of the parameters other than <N> to configure default network port values may alter the function of the device and should not be performed by an unauthorized person.
