Chapter 4 Provisioning the TimeProvider

Setting Communications Parameters

Setting Ethernet Parameters

Before you can begin using the Ethernet port, you must provision the addresses using the local Craft or Remote serial port.

Note: To avoid unexpected interruptions in NTP service, you must restart the IMC card after you change either the Subnet Mask or the IP Address when NTP is active.

If you are not planning to use the Ethernet port, you do not have to provision the parameters in this section.

Setting the IP Addresses

Use the ED-EQPT command to provision the following IP addresses for the TimeProvider:

IP Gateway address

IP address

IP subnet Mask

ED-EQPT:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>=<value>;

This command has a default access level of ADMIN.

<aid>	<keyword>	<value>	Description	Default
COMI	IPGATE	1.0.0.1	IP address of the default gateway	127.0.0.1
		254.255.255.254
	IPADDR	1.0.0.1	IP address of the Network	127.0.0.1
		254.255.255.254	Element
	IPSUBNET	1.0.0.1	Subnet mask IP address	255.255.
		255.255.255.254		255.0

Sample Command

ED-EQPT::COMI:TS1000::IPGATE=127.0.0.1;

This command sets the IP Gate address to 127.0.0.1. Use an appropriate gateway address for your network, and record the address in Table 4-4.
