Chapter 49 IP Commands

The second command changes the default gateway (next hop). This tells the IES-612-51A where to send packets that have a destination IP address that is not on the same subnet as the IES-612-51A’s IP address.

The third command saves the new configuration to the nonvolatile memory.

For example, use the following command sequence sets the IES-612-51A to have 192.168.1.3 as the IP address, 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask and 192.168.1.233 for the default gateway.

Figure 195 IP Settings and Default Gateway Address Command Example

ras> ip set 192.168.1.3/24 ras> ip gateway 192.168.1.233 ras> config save

The IES-612-51A leaves the factory with a default management IP address of 192.168.1.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, (ff:ff:ff:00 in hexadecimal notation), and the default gateway set at 192.168.1.254. Make sure that you configure the IP parameters correctly before you connect a IES-612-51A to the network, otherwise, you may interrupt services already running.
