2.2Setting an IP Address with Install Script

1.Use “TAR” to get the files from the CD-ROM.

2.Run the unpack.sh command. This launches install.sh, which assigns an address from “Installation Options.”

3.Choose “Configure a New FastPort.”

Install.sh asks for the IP addresses, edits applicable files and assigns an IP address. Refer to: /examples/install.doc for a sample session.

2.3 Setting the IP Address using Telnet on UNIX

Note: Telnet only works if a device is on the same subnet as the host.

1.To set an IP address using telnet, use a text editor to open the /etc/ hosts file and add the following line:

192.115.2.1 alpha (Save this file)

a. Enter the following at the command prompt. This sets static ARP:

arp -s ether alpha 0:40:C8:0:1:2B (no leading zeros: RS-6000)

b. arp -s alpha 0:40:C8:0:1:2B (no leading zeros: most UNIX systems)

arpbypass set alpha 0X00.0X40.0XC8.0X00.0X01.0X02 (AT&T and NCR)

Note: The assigned IP address must be on the same local subnet as UNIX.

2.Set the switches to the telnet diagnostic mode and power cycle FastPort.

3.Make a telnet connection to maintenance port 2002. Type telnet alpha 2002. If a connection is successful:
