AG 5500
Installing the AG 5500 47
Assigning the Location Information and IP Addresses
The “location” command in the Configuration menu establishes the AG 5500’s location
settings, the network interface IP address, the subscriber interface IP address, the subnet mask,
and the default gateway IP address. All of these AG 5500 “location” parameters must be set up
as part of the system’s start up configuration (otherwise the AG 5500 will not be “visible” on
the network).
1.
Enter
c
(configuration) at the AG 5500 Menu . The Configuration menu appears.
2.
Enter
loc
(set Location options). The system displays the Company Name. If the name
displayed is not correct (or no name is entered), enter it now.
3.
When prompted, enter the company’s address (line by line - 6 lines).
4.
When prompted, enter a valid email address for this company.
The system now displays the current network interface IP address (the default address is
10.0.0.10) and prompts you for a valid address. The network interface IP address is the
public IP address that allows administrators to see the AG 5500 on the network. Use this
address when you need to make a network connection with the AG 5500.
5.
When prompted, enter a valid network interface IP address.
After assigning the network interface IP address, the system displays the current
subscriber interface IP address (the default is 10.0.0.11). The IP addresses from
subscribers that are on a subnet different from the AG 5500 (for example, misconfigured)
are translated by Nomadix’ Dynamic Address Translation (DAT) patented technology to
the
Subscriber IP Address
.
6.
Enter a valid subnet mask.
After assigning the subnet mask, the system displays the current default gateway IP
address (the factory default is 10.0.0.1). This is the IP address of the router that the AG
5500 uses to transmit data to the Internet.
7. Enter a valid default gateway IP address.
The network interface and subscriber interface addresses must be on the same
subnet.
