Example
The following example sets the management port IPv4 address, subnet mask, and gateway for the
ETEP as shown in Figure 42. Auto-negotiation is left at its default setting of enabled.
admin> configure
config> management-interface
man-if> ip 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1
man-if> exit
The next example sets the management IPv4 address and subnet mask, and omits the default gateway.
The default gateway can be omitted when the management station and the ETEP management port
and are wired directly to each other on the same subnet. Auto-negotiation is disabled. The link speed
is set to 100 Mbps full-duplex and flow control is turned on.
admin> configure
config> management-interface
man-if> ip 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.255
man-if> autoneg off 100m full on
man-if> exit
The following example sets an IPv6 address, prefix length, and default gateway on the management
port.
admin> configure
config> management-interface
man-if> ip6 2001:DB8::211:11FF:FE58:743/64 2001:DB8::20F:F7FF:FE84:BFC2
man-if> exit

Setting the Date and Time
Setting the date and time on the ETEP helps ensure that the appliance’s time can be synchronized
properly with other ETEPs or components in the EncrypTight Manager system.
The time zone on the ETEP is set to UTC 0 (Coordinated Universal Time), and is not user configurable.
Enter the date and time relative to UTC 0, also referred to as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). To calculate
the local time relative to UTC, add or subtract the offset hours from UTC for the local time zone (UTC ±
n). The following examples give the local time at various locations at 12:00 UTC when daylight saving
time is not in effect:
New York City, United States: UTC-5; 07:00
New Delhi, India: UTC+5:30; 17:30
To set the date and time:
1 At the command prompt, type
configure to enter configuration mode.
2At the
config> prompt, type date <year> <month> <day> <hour> <minutes>
<seconds>
