5.3.2 IP Configuration Menu

The IP Configuration Menu is accessed by typing a 1at the command prompt in the Main Configuration Menu. This menu is used to establish IP/TCP and PPP interaction with the network. The F3400/F1000 must be set up with an IP address, mask, and default router. These addresses can be obtained from your Network Administrator or IT Department. To enable the SNMP receiving stations (create communities), the F3400/F1000 MIB, provided on a diskette with every unit, must be loaded on a system(s) running a Network Operating System (NOS). This MIB is compiled through standard functions of the NOS. Consult with your Network Administrator for proper installation of the F3400/F1000 MIB on the NOS. Once the MIB is loaded, the F3400/F1000 can be discovered and configured over the network. For proper operation, the IP addresses configured in the F3400/F1000 communities must match the IP addresses on the receiving stations. Only the administrator's username/password may be changed from this menu. All other Web users must be changed via the Web interface.
