Performing Basic Configuration
Configuring the shelf-controller IP address on a nonredundant unit
4 Verify that the connection and the IP address are correct by pinging any device on the
network.
admin> ping 10.10.10.1
64 bytes from 10.10.10.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms
5 Exit the terminal or workstation.
6 Telnet to the MAX TNT or DSLTNT using a workstation on the LAN. The system will
prompt you for a username and password.
User: admin
Password: Ascend
7 Complete the configuration.
Configuring the shelf-controller IP address on a
nonredundant unit
See “Assigning an Ethernet IP address” on page 2-4 for details about IP address configuration
for an APX 8000 unit with redundant shelf controllers.
All TAOS units have an Ethernet port on the shelf controller. This Ethernet port is designed for
out-of-band management and light traffic loads. It is not intended to be the primary Ethernet
interface for the system. If your unit will be routing heavy Ethernet traffic, use an Ethernet
card.
To assign an IP address to the Ethernet interface of the shelf controller on a nonredundant APX
8000 or a MAX TNT or DSLTNT, use the Read and List commands to display the controller’s
IP-Interface profile, then set the IP-Address parameter. For example:
admin> read ip-interface {{1 controller 1 } 0 }
IP-INTERFACE/{ { shelf-1 controller 1 } 0 } read
admin> list
interface-address* = { { shelf-1 controller 1 } 0 }
ip-address = 0.0.0.0/0
2nd-ip-address = 0.0.0.0/0
rip-mode = routing-off
..
..
admin> set ip-address = 10.2.3.4/24
admin> write
After you assign the unit’s hostname and IP address, you might need to modify the host
information on your local Domain Name System (DNS) server to include the TAOS unit.
