Setting Up Software

Important Notes
♦
Do
not
use commas when specifying a
MAC
aging timer value. For example,
the entry
63,000
will result in an error.
If you want to use the Group aging
timer, enter
0
as the value for the
MAC
aging timer.
If you entered a new
dup-mac-timer
value, you must reboot the switch
before the changes will take effect.
No confirmation message will appear onscreen. To
verify that the switch’s
MAC
aging timer has been set,
type
system dup-mac-timer
at the
CLI
prompt and press
<Enter>
.
7. Assign an IP Address to the Default Group
Your switch is configured with a default Group and
VLAN
. You can add Groups and
VLAN
s later through
the switch software. To get started, you can use the
default group and default
VLAN
to configure the
IP
address for this switch. (The default
IP
address is
192.168.10.1
.) To modify Group
IP
routing parameters,
complete the following steps:
a. To assign or modify the default Group and
VLAN
Address, type the following at the
CLI
prompt
and press
<Enter>
:
->
group 1 router ip <ip-address>
where
1
is the default group and VLAN, and
<
ip-address
>
is the
IP
Address for a specific virtual
router port (for example,
168.23.9.100
).
b. No confirmation message will appear onscreen.
Only the system prompt (
->
) will appear.
See your switch manual to set other parameters.
You have now set up all of the basic software parame-
ters you need to begin managing your switch. Once
your switch is connected to the network, you can use
Telnet or
FTP
to access the switch software through
your network.

At this point, you can begin configur-
ing other switch parameters. See your
OmniAccess 512 User Manual
and any
supplements for information on all
switch commands.
8. Log Out
You have now completed the initial software set-up.
You can exit the switch by typing
logout
or
exit
and
pressing
<Enter>
.
