Performing Basic Configuration

Configuring the shelf-controller IP address on a nonredundant unit

4Verify that the connection and the IP address are correct by pinging any device on the network.

admin> ping 10.10.10.1

64 bytes from 10.10.10.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms

5Exit the terminal or workstation.

6Telnet to the MAX TNT or DSLTNT using a workstation on the LAN. The system will prompt you for a username and password.

User: admin

Password: Ascend

7Complete the configuration.

Configuring the shelf-controller IP address on a nonredundant unit

See “Assigning an Ethernet IP address” on page 2-4for details about IP address configuration for an APX 8000 unit with redundant shelf controllers.

All TAOS units have an Ethernet port on the shelf controller. This Ethernet port is designed for out-of-band management and light traffic loads. It is not intended to be the primary Ethernet interface for the system. If your unit will be routing heavy Ethernet traffic, use an Ethernet card.

To assign an IP address to the Ethernet interface of the shelf controller on a nonredundant APX 8000 or a MAX TNT or DSLTNT, use the Read and List commands to display the controller’s IP-Interface profile, then set the IP-Address parameter. For example:

admin> read ip-interface {{1 controller 1 } 0 } IP-INTERFACE/{ { shelf-1 controller 1 } 0 } read admin> list

interface-address* = { { shelf-1 controller 1 } 0 } ip-address = 0.0.0.0/0

2nd-ip-address = 0.0.0.0/0 rip-mode = routing-off

..

..

admin> set ip-address = 10.2.3.4/24 admin> write

After you assign the unit’s hostname and IP address, you might need to modify the host information on your local Domain Name System (DNS) server to include the TAOS unit.
