Assign an IP Address
The ONS 15305 supports remote management solutions by means of Telnet and SNMP. The
possibilities that regard to connectivity can be rather advanced for the ONS 15305, so the only
explained solution in this document is when directly connected the management port (MNGT). For
more information refer Cisco Edge Craft User Guide and the ONS 15305 Installation and Operations
Guide.
To achieve one of the above mentioned management solutions, you must assign an IP address, subnet
mask, and if required, a default gateway address.
System Mode
In ONS 15305 Release 2.0, an additional management mode, system mode, is added. System mode has
two options: IP and IPUNNUMBERED.
The desirable system mode should be set before configuring the IP settings on the ONS 15305, since
this is a strategic choice to align with the existing design of management data communication network.
By default the system mode is IP, which means that all physical indices must have a unique IP address
and subnet mask. For more information refer CiscoEdge Craft User Guide and the ONS 15305
Installation and Operations Guide.
