previously been configured with an IP address).
2. At the login: prompt, enter your userID.
3. At the password: prompt, enter your password.
4. At the card number: prompt, enter the slot number (3 or 4) of the ASC card. For example,
card number:3

5. At this prompt, enter the cnfifip command to configure the control port, LAN port or in-band port
IP address.
