Conﬁguring Your ELS10-26

The following sections describe how to conﬁgure the optional

parameters of the ELS10-26 using LCM commands, including:

• Assigning IP addresses

• Enabling and disabling bridging

• Displaying bridging functions

• Enabling and disabling trunking

• Displaying trunking status

• Deﬁning and deleting virtual workgroups

• Assigning a community name

3.1 ASSIGNING IP ADDRESSES

You can assign an IP to each port, or you can assign one address

that can be used for the the entire device. Addresses for each port

must be unique. IP addresses are divided into classes based on

what portion of the address is network or port information. The

address classes are A, B, and C.

• Class A addresses are used in very large networks that support

many ports. The ﬁrst byte identiﬁes the network and the other

three bytes identify the node. The ﬁrst byte of a class A address

must be in the range 1-126. The address 100.125.110.10 would

identify node 125.110.10 on network 100.

Note: You can use the LCM

erase

command to erase all configuration

information and return the unit to default settings on the next

system reset.

If you are using a network management tool other than LCM, refer

to its accompanying documentation.
