Cabletron Systems EMM-E6 Ethernet Setting the Host IP Address, Host IP applies to each interface

CHAPTER 7: CONFIGURATION SCREEN

7.3SETTING THE HOST IP ADDRESS

The table on the Configuration screen allows you to assign an IP address and Subnet Mask to the EMM-E6.

NOTE

The Host IP applies to each interface.

To set the Host IP:

1.Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.

2.Enter the IP address into this field. The format for this entry is XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, with values for XXX ranging from 0 to 254. The EMM-E6 rejects non-numerics, adjacent dots (periods), or an entry without dots separating the four XXX values.

3.Press the Return key. The screen displays the Host IP address and changes any existing Subnet Mask to the default Subnet Mask for the IP address entered.

4.Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE IPs command.

5.Press the Return Key. At the resulting prompt, typing “Y” will cause the EMM-E6 to reset and load the Host IP changes into NVRAM.

NOTE

It takes approximately 35 seconds for the EMM-E6 to save and reset. The board is inoperable during this time. After the EMM-E6 resets, the password screen appears and you must re-enter Local Management.

If you exit the Configuration Screen without saving, you lose all edits.
