Setting the IP Address
You use the serial port to configure the unit with an IP address and other address information.
You use the lower serial port on the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU unit front panel to
assign a new video processing module an IP address. You can assign the IP address before or after you
connect the hardware to the network.
Procedure
Step 1 At the prompt, enter N to configure default network port values and press Enter.
Step 2 The default network properties screen appears as follows:
Enter IP Address for default Interface
Without leading zeros <172.20.35.110:ffff0000>
Enter Default Router IP Address for default Interface
Without leading zeros <current default Gateway IP address>:
Step 3 At the Enter IP address for default interface prompt, enter the IP address you want to assign to the video
processing module followed by the subnet mask, in the format <IP address:subnet mask> and press
Enter.
Step 4 At the Enter Default Router IP Address prompt, enter the IP address of the default gateway that you want
the video processing module to use and press Enter.
Allow the unit to complete the reboot process. A new emulator session begins.
