CHAPTER 3
CLI CONFIGURATION
CHAPTER 3. INTRODUCTION TO CLI
3.1 General Introduction
The
IFS/IGS
Series of industrial Ethernet switches provide a number of configuration/management methods. The
first and very basic is serial console access. This method is also called out-of-band management and is only available
when a terminal or administrator PC can be physically connected to the local IFS/IGS Series switch at the CONSOLE
port using RJ45 to RS-232 console cable. Accessing the switch via CONSOLE port allows the user to use Command Line
Interface (CLI) to manage and configure the device. The out-of-band management is relatively useful when you lose
the network connection to the device.
The out-of-band management via console access, using a command line (CLI), is familiar to most network
engineers. For engineers that are not comfortable using CLI, this device can also be managed using any standard Web
Browser in a more user friendly 'point-and-click' method. Therefore, in most configuration scenarios, the console will
only be used to initially configure the IFS/IGS IP address, so that the device may be accessed via the other methods
which require working TCP/IP.
After the device has been properly configured for the application and placed into service, a third method of
configuration/management can be employed using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The operator will
use SNMP management software to manage and monitor the IFS/IGS Series switches on a network. This requires
some configuration of the device to allow SNMP management. In addition, the network management platform will
need to import and compile the proprietary MIB (management information base) file so that the manager knows
"how" to manage the IFS/IGS devices.
3.2 CONSOLE Operation
Using the provided accessory cable, connect the IFS/IGS
"CONSOLE" port (RJ-45) to the PC terminal
communications port (DB9). Run any terminal emulation program (HyperTerminal, PuTTY, TeraTerm Pro, etc.) and
configure the communication parameters as follows:
Speed: 115,200
Data: 8 bits
Parity: none
Stop bits: 1
Flow Control: None
