Assigning Cajun P120’s IP Address
Note: All Cajun P120 switches are shipped with the same default IP address. You
must change the IP address of the Cajun P120 in order to guarantee that the switch
has its own unique IP address in the network.
Changing the IP Address using the Command Line I nterface (CLI, Terminal Emulation)
Via a Serial Connection or Telnet
You may use the CLI to assign the Cajun P120 an IP address and net mask. Once
this address had been assigned and the s witch inserted into the network, the
CajunView station may establish communications with it.

Line Interface" chapter.

mandatory parameters. Refer to the "Command Line Interface" chapter for details.
5 Enter mng-port-ip <<x.x.x.x>> 255.255.255.0 where you replace
<<x.x.x.x>> with the IP address of Cajun P120 and replace the net mask if
necessary. For example, set mng-port-ip 194.3.2.16 255.255.255.0
6 Press Ctrl+Q to exit the group.
