Assigning a P330 IP Stack Address
Note:
All P330 switches are shipped with the same default IP address. You must change the IP address of the master P330 switch in a stack in order to guarantee that the stack has its own unique IP address in the network.
The network management station or a workstation running a Telnet client can establish communications with the stack once this address had been assigned and the stack has been inserted into the network. Use the CLI to assign the P330 stack an IP address and net mask.
To assign a P330 IP stack address:
1.Establish a serial connection by connecting a terminal to the master P330 switch of the stack.
2.When prompted for a Login Name, enter the default name root
3.When you are prompted for a password, enter the password root. You are now in Supervisor Level.
