Login

To access the SmartNode, start the Telnet application. Type the default IP address for the router into the address field: 192.168.1.1. Accessing your SmartNode via a Telnet session displays the login screen. Type the factory default login: administrator and leave the password empty. Press the <Enter> key after the password prompt.

After you have successfully logged in you are in the operator execution mode, indicated by > as command line prompt. With the commands enable and configure you enter the configuration mode.

Changing the WAN IP address

Select the context IP mode to configure an IP interface.

192.168.1.1(cfg)#context ip router 192.168.1.1(ctx-ip)[router]#

Now you can set your IP address and network mask for the interface ETH 0/0 (WAN). Within this example a network 172.16.1.0/24 address is assumed. The IP address in this example is set to 172.16.1.99 (you should set this the IP address given to you by your network provider).

172.16.1.99(ctx-ip)[router]#interface eth0 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#ipaddress 172.16.1.99 255.255.255.0 2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link down on interface eth0. 2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link up on interface eth0. 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#

Note If your WAN connection's IP address is assigned via DHCP, refer to Chapter 21, "DHCP configuration" in the SmartNode Series Smart- Ware Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring DHCP. Copy this modified configuration to your new start-up con- figuration. Upon the next start-up the system will initialize itself using the modified configuration.

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy running-config startup-config 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#

The SmartNode can now be connected to your network.
