3.1.3 Assigning an IP Address Using the CLI
¾ To assign an IP address using the CLI, take these 7 steps:
1. Enable the Embedded Telnet Server:
• Access the Mediant 1000 Embedded Web Server (refer to Section 3.3 on page 15).
• Set the parameter ‘Embedded Telnet Server’ (under Advanced Configuration >
Network Settings > Application Settings) to ‘Enable (Unsecured)’.
• Click the Reset Device button on the main menu bar; the Reset screen is displayed.
• Click the Reset button in the middle of the Reset screen with the Burn option selected;
the Mediant 1000 is shut down and re-activated. A message about the waiting period is
displayed. The screen is refreshed.
2. Use a standard Telnet application to connect to the Mediant 1000 Embedded Telnet Server.
3. Login using the username (‘Admin’) and password (‘Admin’).
4. At the prompt type ‘conf’ and press enter; the configuration folder is accessed.
5. To check the current network parameters, at the prompt, type ‘GCP IP’ and press enter; the
current network settings are displayed.
6. Change the network settings by typing: ‘SCP IP [ip_address] [subnet_mask]
[default_gateway]’ (e.g., ‘SCP IP 10.13.77.7 255.255.0.0 10.13.0.1’); the new settings take
effect on-the-fly. Connectivity is active at the new IP address.
Note: This command requires you to enter all three network parameters (each separated by
a space).
7. To save the configuration, at the prompt, type ‘SAR’ and press enter; the Mediant 1000
restarts with the new network settings.
