Setting the IP Address and Subnet Mask on the MCC for Remote Configuration

You can fully configure the MCC and DSL cards at the Central Office (CO) using the console terminal. However, if you want to perform remote card configuration from a network management workstation via a telnet session, you must set the IP address and subnet mask of the MCC card using a terminal connected to the DSLAM's serial console interface before you can configure the cards remotely.

This section describes how to set the IP address and subnet mask of the MCC card. Refer to the HotWire DSLAM for 8540 and 8546 DSL Cards User's Guide for detailed information on how to completely configure the MCC and DSL cards.
