3. Use the gateway's chassis reset button to physically reset the gateway, causing it to use
BootP; the gateway changes its network parameters to the values provided by BootP.
3.2.2 Assigning an IP Address Using CLI via RS-232
You can assign an IP address to the gateway using CLI by establishing a serial connection
between your PC and the gateway.
¾ To assign an IP address using CLI via RS-232, take these 5 steps:
1. Connect the gateway's RS-232 port (labeled RS-232), located on the rear panel, to your PC.
2. Use serial communication software (e.g., HyperTerminal
TM
) to connect to the gateway. Set
your serial communication software to the following communications port settings: Baud
Rate: 115,200 bps; Data bits: 8; Parity: None; Stop bits: 1; Flow control: None.
3. At the CLI prompt, type conf, and then press <Enter>; the configuration folder is accessed.
4. To check the current network parameters, at the prompt, type GCP IP, and then press
<Enter>; the current network settings are displayed.
5. Change the network settings by typing the following:
SCP IP [ip_address] [subnet_mask] [default_gateway]
(e.g., SCP IP 10.13.77.7 255.255.0.0 10.13.0.1)
Note: This command requires you to enter all three network parameters (each separated by
a space).
The new settings take effect on-the-fly and connectivity is active at the new IP address. To save
the configuration, at the prompt, type SAR, and then press <Enter>; the gateway restarts with the
new network settings.
