Downloading a conﬁguration example, adapting it to your network, and loading it onto the SmartNode

Patton provides a collection of conﬁguration templates on the CD-ROM that came with the SmartNode device—and also on the support page at www.patton.com/voip/appnotes.shtml—one of which may be simi- lar enough to your application that you can use it to speed up conﬁguring the SmartNode. Simply download the conﬁguration note that matches your application to your PC. Adapt the conﬁguration as described in the conﬁguration note to your network (remember to modify the IP address) and copy the modiﬁed conﬁguration to a TFTP server. The SmartNode can now load its conﬁguration from this server.

Note Patton regularly adds new conﬁguration templates to the collection at www.patton.com/voip/appnotes.shtml, so if you do not see your applica- tion on the CD-ROM, it may have been added to the website.

Note If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s conﬁgura- tion templates, you can manually conﬁgure the SmartNode instead of load- ing a conﬁguration ﬁle template. In that case, refer to the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Conﬁguration Guide for information on conﬁguring the SmartNode device.

In this example we assume the TFTP server on the host with the IP address 172.16.1.11 and the conﬁguration named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server.

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy tftp://172.16.1.11/SN.cfg startup-config

Download...100% 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#

After the SmartNode has been rebooted the new startup conﬁguration will be activated.

When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask if you want to copy the running conﬁguration to the startup con- ﬁguration. Since you just downloaded a conﬁguration ﬁle to the

IMPORTANT startup conﬁguration you must answer this question with NO. Otherwise, the downloaded conﬁguration will be overwritten and lost!

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#reloadRunning configuration has been changed.

Do you want to copy the 'running-config' to the 'startup-config'? Press 'yes' to store, 'no' to drop changes : no

Press 'yes' to restart, 'no' to cancel : yes The system is going down

For detailed information about conﬁguring and operating guidance, set up procedures, and troubleshooting, refer to the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Conﬁguration Guide and the SmartNode Getting Started Guide on the enclosed Patton VoIP CD-ROM or at http://www.patton.com/voip/. On the CD-ROM you will also ﬁnd numerous freeware and shareware tools, including TFTP servers, Telnet clients, etc..
