Configuring Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers

C-16 308614-14.20 Rev 00

The script begins to test the IP configuration (FigureC-1).

Figure C-1. Quick-Start IP Configuration Test

10. To continue with the IP configuration test, enter the IP address for the

Site Manager workstation.

To cancel the test, type q.

11. For the ARN only, specify whether you want to configure another

interface.

Type n to stop the Quick-Start script and return to the Technician Interface

prompt.

To configure another interface, type y to return to step 6.

12. At the Technician Interface prompt, enter logout to exit the Technician

Interface.

After the router creates and tests the configuration, it starts using the information

you entered to bridge and route traffic. To configure the router interfaces using

Site Manager, see Configuring and Managing Routers with Site Manager.

Testing local IP interface

ping -IP 192.32.00.000 -r5

IP ping: 192.32.00.000 is alive (size - 16 bytes)

IP ping: 192.32.00.000 is alive (size - 16 bytes)

IP ping: 192.32.00.000 is alive (size - 16 bytes)

IP ping: 192.32.00.000 is alive (size - 16 bytes)

IP ping: 192.32.00.000 is alive (size - 16 bytes)

This test attempts to ping the Site Manager workstation.

NOTE: If routing has not yet converged, an attempt

to ping the Site Manager workstation may fail. If

this happens, you may either enter a new IP address or

quit and wait a short period of time and try again from

the TI command line.

Type q<return> to cancel this test.

Enter IP address of Site Manager workstation:
