Note:
If you are connected using SSH, you will lose connectivity when you use the
activate command. You must log back in to the appliance using the new IP address.
When the SPT-C50 appliance restores after the power cycle, it is ready for use with the
Spirent TestCenter GUI, or an automation script (if supported in your current release).
Setting the Netmask and Gateway Values (all chassis)
The netmask and gateway values are assigned by using direct console (SPT-N4U,
SPT-N11U, and SPT-N12U only) or SSH terminal. Refer to these sections for detailed
steps:
•
“Setting the IP Address using the SPT-N4U, SPT-N11U, or SPT-N12U Direct Console
Connection” on page 42
•
“Setting the IP Address using SSH (all chassis)” on page 43
You must be logged on as “admin” to use “set...” commands. Once connected to the
terminal, use the chassis commands in
Table 1-3 to assign netmask and gateway values.
