Configuring the Chassis
2 After configuring all application module settings via SNMP, use the iConfig
application to make a backup copy of the SNMP management module's
firmware.
3 If the SNMP management module needs to be replaced, set the SNMP Write
Lock switch to LOCKED.
4 Remove the old SNMP module and replace with another SNMP module.
5 Connect to this SNMP module via PrismaView, then launch iConfig.
6 Select the Administration tab and click on List Tasks.
7 Highlight Flashsav and then click on the Terminate button.
8 Update the new board with the firmware backup made in Step 2.
9 Reboot the SNMP Management Module with the reboot command to enable
changes.
10 After rebooting, set the SNMP Write Lock switch back to NORMAL. The
previously made settings to the application modules will be active.
Note: When removing an SNMP card with the SNMP Write Lock enabled (set to
LOCKED), current application module settings will not be changed. Never power-
cycle the chassis while the SNMP Write Lock is enabled. This will revert the SNMP
card back to its original, factory settings. PrismaView should only be accessed with
the SNMP Write Lock disabled.
Telnet
The chassis supports Telnet for remote configuration. All configurations that can be
performed via the serial port can also be performed using Telnet (except serial
passwords).
Note: Use only one Telnet session at a time. Do not use an RS-232 serial session and
a Telnet session at the same time.
DHCP
DHCP Disable (Static IP Addressing)
By default, the DHCP client is disabled. Initially, modules are assigned a Static
default IP Address of 10.10.10.10. Changes to the Static IP Address can be added
manually through iConfig, an RS-232 Serial session, or Telnet. The changes will be
initiated following reboot of the module.
DHCP Enable (Dynamic IP Addressing)
If a DHCP server is present on the network and DHCP is enabled, the DHCP client
will initiate a dialog with the server during the boot up sequence. The server will
then issue an IP address to the management card.
