:
The following example displays a typical configuration of the IP address (10.1.5.109), subnet
mask (255.255.0.0), and default gateway (10.1.1.3).
Since the IP address and the subnet mask are related, when the IP address is changed, there is no
longer a default value of the subnet mask, and it must be entered explicitly.
Enter IP address [10.1.1.201]:
10.1.5.109
Enter IP subnet mask:
255.255.0.0
Enter IP address of default gateway [10.1.1.3]:
Step 2: Configuring the Hostname
The hostname is used to identify the
SCE 2000
. It appears as part of the CLI prompt and is also
returned as the value of the MIB-II object sysName.
The default hostname is
SCE 2000
.
To configure the hostname, complete the following steps:
Step 1
The current hostname is displayed.
•
To accept the displayed value, press
Enter
.
•
To change the value, type any desired character string and press
Enter
.
Enter hostname [
SCE 2000
]:
Step 3: Setting the Passwords
Configure the passwords as follows:
•
Set the password for each authorization level (User, Admin, Root).
•
Enable/disable password encryption. When password encryption is enabled, it encrypts the
previously entered passwords.
Note
Passwords are needed for all authorization levels in order to prevent unauthorized users from accessing
the
SCE 2000
. Admin level should be used by the network administrator. Root level is for use by Cisco
technician.
Passwords must meet the following criteria:
•
Minimum length: 4 characters
•
Maximum length: 100 characters
•
Begin with an alpha character
•
May contain only printable characters
