NOTE
Before performing the initial switch configuration, you should obtain the following information:
„Name of the switch (hostname)
„ATM address (NSAP address)
„Switch IP address (ATM management network)
„Switch IP netmask
„Clock source (network clocking structure)
„Enable password
„Telnet password
„Ethernet IP address (optional) (Ethernet management network)
„Ethernet IP netmask (optional)
Once you have collected this information, continue with Step 1 below. Refer to Appendix C for configuration worksheets designed to help you obtain the necessary configurations prior to setting the switch.
Using a terminal connected to the MAT interface (DB9) perform the following steps.
1.Boot the ATM Switch interface.
2.During the boot sequence, a self diagnosis of all components is performed by the ATM Switch, including all of the interfaces. Do one of the following:
„If no errors were encountered during the self test, verify that the prompt is > and go to the next step. If a switch name had been previously identified, it would be located to the left of the > prompt.
„If errors were encountered during the self test, turn the power off, verify that everything is installed properly, and turn the power back on.
At this point, the operator is not logged into the privileged mode of the switch.
3.Enter a question mark (?).
The question mark (?) is a help request and can be entered at any point in a valid command. (Exception: during some configuration subroutines, help cannot be accomplished without exiting the command.) To continue viewing possible com- mands, hit any key; to stop, type q.
4.Log into privileged mode by typing the following command.
ENABLE
During the initial setup, the enable and Telnet passwords should be set. An initial password must be assigned to enter privileged mode, but it can be changed later by using the PASSWD and TELNETPASSWD commands.
