Prepare for management
3.1 change IP address of device
The default IP address of MG6002 (2), MG6008, MG6016, MG6016E, MG6032, MG6002ET, MG6004ET and
MG6008ET is 138.0.60.1. Because if the equipment IP address and network management computer IP address is not in
the same network segment, the network management computer can not access to equipments. Therefore, when the
equipment is used the first time, users must change the IP address of device to adapt to the LAN, just like the network
179.0. Xx.xx need to replace to 179.0. Xx.xx.
The system offers two methods of setting IP addresses, then take MG6004E for an example. After the IP address
of the equipment has been set up could test whether the network management computer and device are connecting
normally by using ping order.
Attention
:
In order to change the IP address, the new IP address will effect when restore and re-start.
3.1.1.1 change IP address through the device serial ports
Login equipment through the serial port and input order <set ip> (regardless of the case) after "MG6004ET #".
The system will display the current IP address and subnet mask respectively and remind the set value of the new
entering IP address and subnet. Select "yes" when the system is confirming and then the IP address settings has finished.
As shown in Fig 3-1.
Fig.3-1 set up IP address with Super Terminal
3.1.1.2 change IP address through the
Ethernet ports
First change the IP address to IP address (as 138.0.0.226) which is in the same network with default IP address
(138.0.60.1) temporarily in the TCP / IP protocol attribute settings of the network management computer, in order to
identify and link equipment.
After the new IP address is effecting, we must change the network management computer back to the IP address
which is the same with the original IP address.
