Use this procedure to configure for in-band connectivity. In-band connectivity allows you to access the VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 from a local or remote PC using the IP address information assigned to the VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64. The VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 must be connected to the user's network. All the network LAN ports will share one IP address.
For related procedures using the Web GUI, refer to the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS-5) CLI User Provisioning Guide.
1 |
From the User EXEC prompt [(ALU 1850TSS-5-xx) >, enter enable to enter the user privilege mode. The same password is required as for login (default is just press Enter). Result: The user privilege prompt (ALU 1850TSS-5-xx) # displays. |
2 |
Use the show network command to display default network configuration settings. |
3 |
If required, use the network protocol {none | bootp | dhcp} command to specify none for the network configuration protocol to be used. Example: network protocol none. |
4 |
Use the network parms command to enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address (if required) being used for the network ports. The IP Address and gateway must be on the same subnet. Gateway is an optional parameter. Example: (ALU 1850TSS-5-xx) # network parms <ipaddress> <netmask> [<gateway>]. The network port and serviceport IP address information need to be in different IP subnets. The network port and serviceport IP address information must be in different IP subnets. Only one gateway may be defined for remote access, either on the network port or the serviceport. If this command fails, you may get an error message if the serviceport IP address has already been assigned and this IP address for the network ports is in the same subnet. You will have to reprovision one of the IP addresses. |
5 |
Save the configuration changes using the write memory command. At the user privilege prompt, enter write memory. Required only if you want the current configuration information to be preserved across reboots. Result: System message indicates: This operation may take a few minutes. Management interfaces will not be available during this time. Are you sure you want to save (y/n)? |
6 |
Enter y to execute the command. Result: After a few seconds, a confirmation message appears: Configuration Saved! |
7 |
Use the show network command to confirm your changes. |
