Configuring the ANG-1100 with Aurorean Web Config

2Do one of the following:

To change the ANG-1100’s MAC address to reflect your computer’s MAC address, first find the computer’s address by issuing the proper command at a DOS prompt. For Windows 95/98/ME systems, type winipcfg; for Windows NT/2000 systems, type ipconfig /all; for Macintosh systems, check the TCP-IP control panel.

In the command output, look for the Physical or Adapter Address value. For example:

c:>ipconfig /all Ethernet adapter E190x1:

Description . . : 3Com 3C90x Ethernet Adapter

Physical Address : 00-10-4B-9D-18-17

Enter the value in the Internet MAC Address Assignment fields.

Click Apply and Reboot Now when prompted to save the change.

Select Clear System Logfile and click Apply.

Select Soft Reboot ANG-1100 and click Apply.

NOTE

ANG-1100 connections broken during a reboot will be lost after service returns. Idling the traffic stream (Telnet, e.g.) for a couple minutes before re-initiating the connection resolves the problem.

Using the Configuration Editor

Knowledgeable network administrators can use the Configuration Editor to modify the ANG-1100’s LINUX 2.0 operating system configuration files.

CAUTION

Inexperienced users or those unfamiliar with LINUX attempting to use this editor may disable the system. We recommend only expert users, in conjunction with Enterasys Customer Support, use this editor.
