Chapter 2 Setting Up Your Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU
Video Processing Module Initial Configuration for the 3515 MCU
Setting the IP Address
This section describes how to use the serial port to configure the unit with an IP address and other
address information.
The lower serial port on the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU unit front panel is used to
assign a new video processing module an IP address. You can assign the IP address before or after you
connect the hardware to the network.
Procedure
Step 1 At the prompt, enter N to configure default network port values and press Enter.
Step 2 The default network properties screen appears as follows:
Enter IP Address for default Interface
Without leading zeros <172.20.35.110:ffff0000>
Enter Default Router IP Address for default Interface
Without leading zeros <current default Gateway IP address>:
Step 3 At the Enter IP address for default interface prompt, enter the IP address you want to assign to the video
processing module followed by the subnet mask, in the format <IP address:subnet mask> and press
Enter.
Note You must enter the subnet mask in the hexadecimal format.
Step 4 At the Enter Default Router IP Address prompt, enter the IP address of the default gateway that you want
the video processing module to use and press Enter.
Allow the unit to complete the reboot process. A new emulator session begins.
Step 5 At the Main menu, do one of the following:
–
Enter the letter for the set of parameters that you want to configure.
–
Enter Q to save your changes and allow the device to complete the boot process.
Caution Configuration of any of the parameters other than N: Configure default network port values may alter
the function of the device and should not be performed by an unauthorized person.
Setting Ethernet Speed and Duplex Parameters
You can use the serial port to set the Ethernet speed and duplex parameters that you want the
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU to use.
Note We recommend that you manually set these parameters on the Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing 3515 MCU and switch to Ethernet speed 100 Mbps and full duplex.
