Telect MIX 56 user manual To Connect With a Craft Interface Over the Craft Port

MIX 56 User Manual 4 Software Operation

NOTE

Before using the Ethernet port, you must connect over the Craft port and set the system’s IP, Subnet Mask, and gateway addresses. This can be done from the Craft interface’s System Interfaces screen or by the TL1 com- mands “set-ip-addr”, “set-subnet-mask”, and “set-gateway”. Remember to set the Ethernet port to half-duplex. See “Specifying System Interface Settings” on page 4-17.
