Chapter 7 Establishing Switch Access
P330 Sessions
You can use sessions to switch between the CLI of P330 modules / other stack entities (for example, an X330 ATM or WAN entity plugged into a specific P330 switch or with the G700 Media Gateway Precessor) or to switch between Layer 2 and Layer 3 commands in the router module.
To switch between P330 modules use the command: session [<mod_num>] <mode>.
The <mod_num> is the number of the module in the stack, counting from the bottom up.
The <mode> can be either switch, router, wan, atm, mgp.
Use switch mode to configure layer 2 commands.
Use router mode to configure routing commands.
Examples:
To configure router parameters in the module that you are currently logged into, type the following command:
session router.
To configure the switch parameters, on module 6, type the command: session 6 switch.
Note: When you use the session command the security level stays the same.
Assigning P330’s IP Stack Address
Note: All P330 switches are shipped with the same default IP address. You must change the IP address of the master P330 switch in a stack in order to guarantee that the stack has its own unique IP address in the network.
The network management station or a workstaion running Telnet session can establish communications with the stack once this address had been assigned and the stack has been inserted into the network. Use the CLI to assign the P330 stack an IP address and net mask.
To assign a P330 IP stack address:
1Establish a serial connection by connecting a terminal to the Master P330 switch of the stack.
2When prompted for a Login Name, enter the default name root
3When you are prompted for a password, enter the password root. You are now in Supervisor Level.
