3.5 Initial configuration of the Gateway
You must configure the Gateway to allow you to distinguish multiple PBX VoIP gateways from each other.
You may also want to configure a password for the gateway to prevent any unauthorized access.
3.5.1 Using the System Console
The following process shows how the host name and password can be configured via the system console.
Before you begin, make sure to perform the following:
y Connect a VT100 terminal to the console port: 9600, 8, 1, N
y Switch on the gateway and wait until it displays ”Press Enter…”
Step 1: Enter Privileged Mode
PBX GATEWAY>enable
Password: ******
PBX GATEWAY#
There is no (factory default) password set
Step 2: Enter configuration mode
PBX GATEWAY#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z
PBX GATEWAY (config)#
Step 3: Modify the name of the gateway for easy reference
PBX GATEWAY (config)#hostname PBX Gateway
PBX Gateway (config)#
Step 4: Change the privileged mode password.
PBX Gateway (config)#password console read <password>
To configure the password for read-only privilege
or
PBX Gateway (config)#password console write <password>
