Manual Configuration of

the Initial IP Settings

This procedure should only be used to initially configure the IP settings. This is only necessary when the PC which has UltraNet ConfigManager installed on it, is not able to be on the same subnet as the UltraNet Edge 3000. Manual configuration uses the Command Line Interface to configure the initial IP settings for the Maintenance IP Port. This allows UltraNet ConfigManager to communicate and deliver a configuration to the UltraNet Edge 3000 after the initial settings have been done.

Manually Configure the Maintenance IP Port using the Command Line Interface

Before you begin: You need the Maintenance Port IP address, default gateway address, and subnet mask to complete this procedure. If you have completed a Configuration Worksheet, the addresses needed to

configure these parameters are shown in Fields A, B, F, and G.

Use the following procedure to manually configure the Maintenance

IP Port:

8.Connect the McDATA supplied RS-232 serial cable to the port labeled, Serial on the front of the UltraNet Edge 3000. Connect the other end of the RS-232 cable into the McDATA supplied adapter, labeled EE.

9.Connect the EE connector to the 9 pin serial interface of the PC which has UltraNet ConfigManager installed on it.
