Chapter4 Provisioning Using ASH and SNMP
Set IP Address
4.2 Set IP Address
Before connecting the ONS 15216 EDFA2 to a LAN, it is mandatory to set the ONS 15216 EDFA2 IP
address through a local serial communication interface us ing the RS-232 (EIA/TIA-232) port on the
front of the module.
Step 1 If you do not know the ONS 15216 EDFA2’s IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, or host name,
contact your network administrator.
Step 2 At the command prompt, enter the snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtGroup
command (displayed in Example 4-3) and press Enter.
Example4-3 Setting IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway Address, and Host Name
ash:hostname:ONS15216 EDFA2> snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtGroup
cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtEnetAddress 0.0.0.0
cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtEnetSubNetMask 0.0.0.0
cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtDefaultRouterAddress 0.0.0.0
cerent15216EdfaSromIpMgmtHostName ""
Because row set is being used in this command, the user is prompted row by row to enter the IP address,
the subnet mask, the gateway address, and the host name (communi ty ID).
Step 3 The changes must be saved prior to terminating the session. See “Save Changes” section on page4- 11.
Step 4 The system must be rebooted to make the IP address active. Use the processor reset command. (See
“processor reset Command” section on page6-12.)
4.3 Log In via LAN Port Using Telnet (Optional)
Provisioning of the ONS 15216 EDFA2 can be accomplished entirely through the RS-232
(EIA/TIA-232) port using CLI commands. After an IP address is assigned, it may be easier to provision
the ONS 15216 EDFA2 using Telnet or an SNMP manager. A Telnet client is needed for CLI commands
over IP. A generic SNMP manager is required for SNMP management over IP. After connecting the
ONS 15216 EDFA2 to the network through its RJ-45 LAN port (see “LAN Interface (Ethernet)” section
on page 3-14), the user can configure the module to accept SNMP and CLI commands via Telnet using
the following procedure:
Step 1 Connect to the LAN port on the front panel. See “LAN Connection Procedure” section on page 3-15.
Step 2 Click the Microsoft Windows Start menu and select Run.
Step 3 In the text field, type the following:
telnet <ONS 15216 EDFA2 IP address> 8023
Specifying port 8023 ensures login through the ASH shell. If no port is specified, the
ONS 15216 EDFA2 responds in the shell that the ONS 15216 EDFA2 is set to. (TL1 is the default shell.)
