Telnet Commands (continued)
SET DEVICE
Sets the device number, and stores it in non-volatile memory.
Syntax:
SET DEVICE <num>
The valid range of device numbers is 0 to 31999.
• If the user enters a number outside that range, then no change will be made and the
DXLink Fiber unit will issue an error message.
• A Device Number of ‘0’ means that the DXLink Fiber unit will accept the auto-assigned
device number from the Master.
• If the new device number is different from the old device number, the DXLink Fiber unit will
disconnect from the Master, and begin trying to connect with the new settings.
Note:
These changes do not require a reboot to take effect.
SET DNS
Sets the DNS configuration of the DXLink Fiber unit, only as applied to Static IP Mode
(DNS settings in DHCP Mode are received from the DHCP server).
Syntax:
SET DNS
This command prompts you to enter a Domain Name, DNS IP #1, DNS IP #2, and DNS IP #3.
• Enter Y (yes) to approve/store the information in the Master.
• Enter N (no) cancels the operation.
