4 Configuring the NCL1170
APCD–NC006–A 19
8. At the
NCL1170>
prompt, type
<write>
to save the settings to memory.
4.2 Setting the IP Configuration
Check that the NCL1170 is has been connected to a terminal and initialized as described in
Connecting the NCL1170 , on page 12 and you have changed the password as described in
Changing the NCL1170 Password , on page 15.
Before configuring IP options, complete the radio configuration as described in Setting the
Radio Configuration , on page 18.
1. At the
NCL1170>
prompt, type
<ip address ethernet aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd nn >
to set the IP address for the Ethernet interface.
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
is the IP address
of the NCL1170 and nn is the number of bits in the subnet mask (for example, 24
represents a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0).
2. At the
NCL1170>
prompt, type
<mode bridging>
or
<mode routing>
to set the
forwarding mode.
If you are setting the NCL1170 to operate in bridging mode, go directly to Step 3.
If setting the NCL1170 to routing mode, type
<ip address radio
remote_unit_id aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd eee.fff.ggg.hhh >
to set the IP address
for the radio interface to the remote unit.
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
is the IP address for the
local unit and
eee.fff.ggg.hhh
is the IP address for the remote unit.
NOTE: If you change the radio IP address for a Station at a later time,
remember to update the Master with the new Station IP address.
If you change the radio IP address for a Master at a later time,
remember to update each Station in the Remote Station List with
the new remote IP address for the Master.
3. For a Master unit, repeat step 2 for every Station in the group. For a Station unit, you
only need to enter the remote unit IP address for the Master.
4. Optionally, you can add up to 256 static routes for the NCL1170. At the
NCL1170>
prompt, type
<ip route add aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd eee.fff.ggg.hhh
subnet_mask >
where
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
is the IP address for the destination
network,
eee.fff.ggg.hhh
is the IP address for the gateway, and
subnet_mask
is specified in the number of bits.
5. If the mode is routing and the NCL1170 is a Master, type
<ip route add
station_ethernet_subnet station_radio_ip_address subnet_mask >
to
route the Master subnet traffic to the Master.
6. If the mode is routing and the NCL1170 is a Station, type
<ip route add 0.0.0.0
master_radio_ip_address 0>
to add a default static route to route all unknown
subnets through the Master.
7. At the
NCL1170>
prompt, type
<radio enable>
to enable the NCL1170 to transmit
messages. Ensure that the NCL1170 antenna port is terminated.
