Assigning an IP address to the MAX
If you want to use Telnet or other remote management tools to access the MAX unit for
configuration and management, you need to assign an IP address to the unit. If you are using
the control port to configure the MAX, you do not need to assign an IP address.
To assign an IP address, you set the IP Adrs parameter in the Ether Options profile, which is
located in Ethernet > Mod Config > Ether Options. Proceed as follows:
1
From the Main Edit Menu, select Ethernet > Mod Config > Ether Options.
The following list of parameters appears. (The settings shown are examples only.)
40-D00 Mod Config
Ether options
IP Adrs=10.9.8.7
2nd Adrs=0.0.0.0/0
RIP =Off
RIP2 Use Multicast=No
Ignore Def Rt=Yes
Proxy Mode=Off
Filter=0
IPX Frame=None
IPX Enet#=N/A
IPX Pool#=N/A
IPX SAP Filter=N/A
Handle IPX Type20=N/A
2
Set the IP Adrs parameter to the IP address and (optional) subnet mask of the MAX. A
slash (/) separates the address and the mask. For example, 198.5.248.40/29 indicates that
29 bits of the IP address are interpreted as network bits.
3
Press the Left Arrow key to exit the Ether Options profile.
A confirmation menu appears:
EXIT?
> 0=ESC (Don’t exit)
1=Exit and discard
2=Exit and accept
