1.

Connect the DB-9 (male) connector of your serial cable to the 

CONSOLE

 port on the rear 

panel of the unit.

2.

Connect the other end of the serial cable to the terminal or PC.

3.

Provide power to the unit as appropriate. Refer to the 

NetVanta 5305 Hardware Installation 

Guide

 (provided on the 

AOS Documentation

 CD or available online at 

http://kb.adtran.com

 

(article number 2521) for more details.

4.

Once the unit is powered up, open a VT100 terminal session using the following settings: 
9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity bits, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Press 

<Enter>

 to 

activate the AOS CLI.

5.

Enter 

enable

 at the 

>

 prompt and enter the Enable mode password when prompted. The 

default password is 

password

.

You can also access the CLI from a Telnet client. In order to do this, you must know the IP 
address of the AOS device. If you do not know the unit’s IP address, you must use the 

CONSOLE

 

port to access the CLI. To access the CLI using a Telnet client, follow these steps:

1.

Connect the AOS device’s 

ETH 0/1

 port to your computer’s Ethernet interface using an 

Ethernet cross-over cable.

2.

Open a Telnet client on your computer. You can access the Telnet client by navigating to 

Start

 > 

Run

 and entering 

telnet 10.10.10.1

 (Windows® XP). If you are running Windows 

Vista, you will need to turn on the Telnet client before you access it. To do this, navigate to 

Start

 > 

Control Panel

 > 

Programs and Features

 > 

Turn Windows features on or off

 > 

Telnet Client Option

 and select 

OK

10.10.10.1

 is the default unit IP address. If you have 

changed your unit’s IP address, you will need to enter that address.

3.

Enter 

enable 

at the 

>

 prompt and enter the enable password when prompted. The default 

password is 

password

The following are common CLI commands and tips for getting started with the CLI.

Entering a question mark (?) shows contextual help and options. For example, entering 

?

 at 

the prompt will show all commands available from that prompt.

To view interface statistics, enter 

show interface 

<interface type> <interface number>

.

To view the current configuration, enter 

show running-config

.

You can find VT100 terminals on most PCs by navigating to 

Start

 > 

Programs

 > 

Accessories 

Communications

 > 

HyperTerminal

. When you 

have opened a HyperTerminal session, enter the settings described in Step 4.

Many PCs do not come with a standard serial port. A universal serial bus (USB) 
to serial adapter can be used instead. The drivers for the USB to serial adapter 
must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If the USB to 
serial adapter is not properly installed on your PC, you will not be able to 
communicate with the AOS unit and you should seek support from the USB to 
serial adapter manufacturer.

To view all the IP addresses currently configured, enter 

show ip interface brief

.

To view the AOS version, serial number, and other information, enter 

show version

.

To view the routing table, enter 

show ip route

.

To save the current configuration, enter

2.

At the 

(config)#

 prompt, enter 

interface eth 0/1

 to access the configuration parameters for 

the Ethernet port located on the rear of the unit.

3.

Enter 

ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0 

to assign an IP address to the Ethernet port 

using a 24-bit subnet mask.

4.

Enter 

no shutdown

 to activate the interface to pass data.

5.

Enter 

exit

 to exit the Ethernet interface commands and return to the Global Configuration 

mode.

6.

Enter 

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254

 to add a default route to the route table. 

0.0.0.0

 

is the default route and the default subnet mask, and 

192.168.1.254

 is the next-hop IP 

address to which the AOS router should send all of its traffic. You will need to enter the 
proper route, subnet mask, and gateway for your network. This information is typically 
provided by an Internet service provider (ISP) or local network administrator.
