Initial configuration
Step one: Connect to the console port
1 Ensure power is connected to the IP GW and the Status LED is green.
2 Connect the console port of the IP GW to the serial port of your PC using the
blue RJ45 to DB9 cable supplied.
3 Use a serial terminal program, such as SecureCRT or HyperTerminal, to
connect to the IP GW. Set your terminal software to the following settings:
Baud rate: 38400
Data bits: 8
Parity: none
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: none
4 Press Enter. The following command prompt appears on the terminal:
IPGW:>
Step two: Configure Ethernet Port A
The default setting for the IP GW Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch
ports to which you connect the IP GW are not also set to auto-sensing mode, then
you need to configure the IP GW Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex
mode.
To configure Ethernet Port A, enter the following for auto-sensing mode:
ethertype auto
or to configure a speed and duplex, use the following command:
ethertype <10|100> <half|full>
For example, to configure a full-duplex 100Mbps link, enter:
ethertype 100 full
To display the current configuration and status of the Ethernet ports, enter:
status
Both ends of the Ethernet connection must be configured in the same
way. For example, either configure both ends of the link to be auto-
sensing or configure both ends to operate at the same speed and duplex.
To establish a 1000Mbps connection, both ends of the link must be
configured as auto-sensing.
