3.Use the gateway's chassis reset button to physically reset the gateway, causing it to use BootP; the gateway changes its network parameters to the values provided by BootP.

3.2.2Assigning an IP Address Using CLI via RS-232

You can assign an IP address to the gateway using CLI by establishing a serial connection between your PC and the gateway.

¾To assign an IP address using CLI via RS-232, take these 5 steps:

1.Connect the gateway's RS-232 port (labeled RS-232), located on the rear panel, to your PC.

2.Use serial communication software (e.g., HyperTerminalTM) to connect to the gateway. Set your serial communication software to the following communications port settings: Baud Rate: 115,200 bps; Data bits: 8; Parity: None; Stop bits: 1; Flow control: None.

3.At the CLI prompt, type conf, and then press <Enter>; the configuration folder is accessed.

4.To check the current network parameters, at the prompt, type GCP IP, and then press <Enter>; the current network settings are displayed.

5.Change the network settings by typing the following:

SCP IP [ip_address] [subnet_mask] [default_gateway]

(e.g., SCP IP 10.13.77.7 255.255.0.0 10.13.0.1)

Note: This command requires you to enter all three network parameters (each separated by a space).

The new settings take effect on-the-fly and connectivity is active at the new IP address. To save the configuration, at the prompt, type SAR, and then press <Enter>; the gateway restarts with the new network settings.
