MANAGED, HIGH-SPEED NETWORK MODEM USER GUIDE

7.2.3 Procedures for Initial Configuration

A serial console port session allows you to assign an IP address, mask, and default gateway to each new modem if required. Once installed and configured, you can open a Telnet session from a PC attached to a network that is connected to one of the XL-12000S LAN ports to configure further changes. Only one console session, either console port or Telnet based, can be open at one time. Availability is first come, first served. SNMP requests may occur at the same time as a Telnet session.

This section begins with setting up your first console session, shows you how to configure one unit as Master and the other as Slave and ends with configuring each modem as a router or as a bridge. This section also shows how to open a Telnet session and how to set

a password.
