CHAPTER 28

IP Commands

This chapter shows you how to use the ipcommands to configure the IP (Internet Protocol) parameters.

28.1 IP Commands Introduction

Use the MSAP2000 AAMS’s management IP addresses to manage it through the network.

28.2IP Settings and Default Gateway

Use the following command sequence to set the MSAP2000 AAMS’s IP settings for the Ethernet 1 and 2, and DSL ports, VID and default gateway. With the Ethernet 1 and 2, and DSL ports, you must connect to the MSAP2000 AAMS through a port that is a member of the management (CPU) VLAN in order to perform in-band management.

1ras> ip set <new ip address> [</netmask>]

2ras> ip gateway <ip>

3ras> config save

where

<new ip address>

</netmask>

=The IP address you want to configure for the AAM.

=The bit number of the subnet mask of the IP address you want to configure for MSAP2000 AAMS’s uplink, downlink and MSAP2000 AAMS DSL ports. To find the bit number, convert the subnet mask to binary and add all of the 1’s together. Take “255.255.255.0” for example. 255 converts to eight 1’s in binary. There are three 255’s, so add three eights together and you get the bit number (24).

<ip>= The default gateway IP address you want to configure for the MSAP2000 AAMS.

Line 1 changes the IP settings for the MSAP2000 AAMS’s uplink, downlink and MSAP2000 AAMS DSL ports. If you don’t enter the subnet mask, the system automatically computes the subnet mask.

Line 2 changes the default gateway (next hop). This tells the MSAP2000 AAMS where to send packets that have a destination IP address that is not on the same subnet as the MSAP2000 AAMS’s IP address.

Line 3 saves the new configuration to the nonvolatile memory.
