Configuration Methods
After installation, the PremierWave EN requires configuration. For the unit to operate
correctly on a network, it must have a unique IP address on the network. There are three
basic methods for logging into the PremierWave EN and assigning IP addresses and other
configurable settings:
DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and related settings and view current settings on
the PremierWave EN using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network.
(See page 16.)
Command Mode: There are two methods for accessing Command Mode (CLI): making a
Telnet or SSH connection, or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a terminal emulation
program) to the unit’s serial port. (See the PremierWave EN Command Reference Guide for
instructions and available commands.)
