Configuration
There are two separate methods for configuring this media
converter for use. In the first section of this chapter, the
Command line Interface (CLI) or Menu-driven interface via
the
Console Port
to set the device for connection to data
terminal equipment in console mode will be defined. The
second section will describe the
CLI or Menu-driven via
Telnet
configuration.
Console Port
The media converter is accessible via a terminal emulator
attached to the RS-232 console port. After completing the
steps outlined to connect the devices (see Connection to
Data Terminal Equipment in previous chapter), proceed
with the directions below to login to the management facility
using a HyperTerminal. The converter is preset with a
factory IP address that must be configured to the user’s
individual IP address. It is important to do this so that the
converter doesn’t conflict with other devices with the same
defaults.
NOTE:
Prior to following the instructions listed
below for HyperTerminal Configuration,
ensure that a serial cable connection
between the media converter and remote
workstation exists.
