First-Time Quick Configuration

This section describes the minimal configuration required to facilitate first‐time communications with the Matrix X4‐C. Consider the following:

Decide whether you will configure the Matrix X4‐C for switching (bridging) or routing:

If routing, assign an IP address to interface eth0 for management access. Refer to “Assigning an IP Address to eth0” on page 3‐43.

If switching, configure the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for network IP address assignment. Refer to “Configuring DHCP” on page 3‐43.

Note: Be aware that a statically or DHCP-assigned IP address is accessible from within that subnet by a host directly connected to the interface (via a switch) but if you need to connect to the console from a host on a different subnet, you must configure a static route to that host. Refer to the Matrix X Router Command Line Interface Reference Guide for more information.

Enable the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to configure proper chassis clocking. Refer to “Enabling NTP” on page 3‐43.

Designate a name, location, and contact for the Matrix X4‐C. Refer to “Naming the Matrix X4‐C” on page 3‐43.

For more detailed information about configuring the Matrix X4‐C, refer to the Matrix X Router Configuration Guide, which is available online at:
