SmartNode 4400 Quick Start Guide

Downloading a configuration example, adapting it to your network, and loading it onto the SmartNode

Patton provides a collection of configuration templates on the CD-ROM that came with the SmartNode device—and also on the support page at www.patton.com/voip/appnotes.shtml—one of which may be simi- lar enough to your application that you can use it to speed up configuring the SmartNode. Simply download the configuration note that matches your application to your PC. Adapt the configuration as described in the configuration note to your network (remember to modify the IP address) and copy the modified configuration to a TFTP server. The SmartNode can now load its configuration from this server.

Note Patton regularly adds new configuration templates to the collection at www.patton.com/voip/appnotes.shtml, so if you do not see your applica- tion on the CD-ROM, it may have been added to the website.

Note If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s configura- tion templates, you can manually configure the SmartNode instead of load- ing a configuration file template. In that case, refer to the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring the SmartNode device.

In this example we assume the TFTP server on the host with the IP address 172.16.1.11 and the configuration named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server.

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy tftp://172.16.1.11/SN.cfg startup-config

Download...100% 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#

After the SmartNode has been rebooted the new startup configuration will be activated.

When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask if you want to copy the running configuration to the startup con- figuration. Since you just downloaded a configuration file to the

IMPORTANT startup configuration you must answer this question with NO. Otherwise, the downloaded configuration will be overwritten and lost!

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#reloadRunning configuration has been changed.

Do you want to copy the 'running-config' to the 'startup-config'? Press 'yes' to store, 'no' to drop changes : no

Press 'yes' to restart, 'no' to cancel : yes The system is going down
