Changing the Switch IP Address and Default Gateway through
the CLI
The CLI can be accessed two ways:
• using the switch serial port:
— 12200 (with optional management module) and 12300: connects through the
RS-232 serial port
— 12800 series: connects through the SEEB DB-9 port
• through Ethernet, using Telnet or SSH
Note:
If using a serial port with a 12800-series switch, make certain to connect to the SEEB
serial port associated with the Management Module (MM) on the opposite side of the
chassis.
2.9.3.1
Using the Serial Connection
1. When a serial port connection is established, the user will see a prompt. To change
the chassis IP address type:
setChassisIpAddr -h <ipaddress> -m <netMask>
where
-h <ipaddress>
is the new IP address in dotted decimal format (that is,
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
), and
-m <netMask>
is the new subnet mask in dotted
decimal format.
2. To change the switch default gateway IP address type:
setDefaultRoute -h <ipaddress>
where
-h <ipaddress>
is the new default gateway IP address in dotted decimal
format.
3. The changes are effective immediately.
2.9.3.2
Using Ethernet
1. Access the switch with one of the following commands using the default IP address:
Telnet: telnet 192.168.100.9
SSH: ssh 192.168.100.9
2. The system prompts for a user name. In order to change the IP address and default
gateway, the user must be logged in as the administrator. At the prompt type

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
), and
-m <netMask>
is the new subnet mask in dotted
decimal format.
