DLP-3 Setting IP Parameters for the ATLAS 800 Series System

Introduction

This section describes using the ATLAS SYSTEM CONFIG menu to set IP parameters.

If the ATLAS is connected to an IP network for Telnet, TFTP, or SNMP management, several IP

parameters must be set in order for the ATLAS to communicate with the network.

Prerequisite Procedures

This procedure assumes that the ATLAS unit is connected to an IP network and is powered up.

Tools and Materials Required

• Data cable to connect to either a VT100 terminal or a PC configured as a VT100 terminal

• VT100 terminal or PC configured as a VT100 terminal

Setting IP Parameters

1. Connect the ATLAS unit to your VT100 system (see DLP-1, Connecting the Terminal or PC to the ADMIN

or CRAFT Port,

on page 317).

2. Login to the system with maximum rights (details for logging in are in DLP-2,

System Login and Menu

Access,

on page 319).

Please see your Network Administrator for the proper assignment of the following

parameters: IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.

To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a

lightning storm.

Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling modules,

wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic components. Place

modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When working on

modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is electrically grounded.
