DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
1. Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the switch and to an RS-232 serial port on the
workstation.
If the serial port on the workstation is RJ45 instead of RS-232, remove the adapter on the end
of the serial cable and insert the exposed RJ45 connector into the RJ45 serial port on the
workstation.
2. Open a terminal emulator application (such as HyperTerminal on a PC, or TERM, TIP, or Kermit
in a UNIX environment), and configure the application as follows:
•
In a Windows environment:
•
In a UNIX environment using TIP, enter the following string at the prompt:
tip /dev/ttyb -9600.
If ttyb is already in use, use
ttya
instead and enter the following string at the prompt:
tip /dev/ttya -9600
Switch IP address
You can configure the Brocade 6520 with a static IP address, or you can use a DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) server to set the IP address of the switch. DHCP is enabled by default.
The Brocade 6520 supports both IPv4 and
IPv6 ???
.
Using DHCP to set the IP address
When using DHCP, the Brocade 6520 obtains its IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
address from the DHCP server. The DHCP client can only connect to a DHCP server that is on the
same subnet as the switch. If your DHCP server is not on the same subnet as the Brocade 6520,
use a static IP address.
Setting a static IP address
1. Log into the switch using the default password, which is password.
2. Use the ipaddrset command to set the Ethernet IP address.
If you are going to use an IPv4 IP address, enter the IP address in dotted decimal notation as
prompted. As you enter a value and press Enter for a line in the following example, the next line
appears.
For instance, the Ethernet IP Address appears first. When you enter a new IP address and
press Enter or simply press Enter accept the existing value, the Ethernet Subnetmask line
appears.
