This prompt indicates that the UTM device has entered user view and is ready to configure.
Configuration Fundamentals
The section covers the generic procedures that you need to follow to configure a U200 series device.
Step1
Before configuring the device, you should summarize the networking requirements, including the
networking objective, role of the device in the network, division of subnets, WAN type and transmission
medium, network security policy and network reliability.
Step2
Based on the above requirements, draw a clear, complete network diagram.
Step3
Configure the WAN interface of the UTM device. First, configure the physical operating parameters (for
example, the baud rate and synchronous clock) of the interface according to the transmission medium
of the WAN. In the case of a dial-up interface, you also need to configure DCC parameters. Then,
configure the WAN type, data link layer protocol encapsulated on the interface, and related operating
parameters.
Step4
Configure the IP addresses of all the interfaces on the device according to the division of the subnets.
Step5
Configure routes. If it is necessary to enable a dynamic routing protocol, you need to configure related
operating parameters of the protocol.
Step6
Perform security configuration for the device if necessary.
Step7
Perform reliability configuration for the device if necessary.
For the configuration details of the protocols or functions of the device, refer to the related user
manuals.
Command Line Interface
Features of the Command Line Interface
A U200 series device is available with the command line interface (CLI) for you to configure, manage,
and maintain the device.
The CLI provides the following functions:
z
Allows you to perform local configuration through the console port.
z
Allows you to perform the local or remote configuration and directly log in to and manage other
UTM devices by using the
telnet
command.
z
Provides online help, which is available by entering “?”.
z
Provides network diagnostic tools, such as Tracert and Ping, for quick diagnosis of network
connectivity.
z
Provides all kinds of detailed debugging information to help diagnose network faults.
z
Supports the auto-complete function. If you enter a conflict-free part of a command, the command
will be interpreted. For example, you just need to enter
dis
for the
display
command.
z
Supports the suggest function. For example, if you type
dis
and press
Tab
, all the commands
started with “dis” will be displayed.
Management of Commands
The command line interface of the UTM device provides plenty of configuration commands. All the
commands are grouped in system view. Each group corresponds to a view. You can switch between
different configuration views with commands. Normally, only certain commands can be executed in a
