4.4.4 Configuring System Parameters

Enter "configuration" mode, as shown below, to configure the system parameters

fiberdriver# configure terminal



Note that each command is completed with the or key, which is not printable.



Once the mode is changed, the prompt also changes. Change the SUPER user password using
the "username" command.

fiberdriver(config)# username admin password


Set the IP configuration using the "ip" command group. Set IP address and IP mask information

using the following command.

fiberdriver(config)# ip interface 169.254.88.200/16


The IP address (169.254.88.200) and the netmask (16) are examples only. Use the IP address
and netmask appropriate for the EM316LNXNM-OT on your network. Classless Inter-Domain
Routing (CIDR) notation is used to specify the address (169.254.88.200) and mask (16)
corresponding to 255.255.0.0.



Set specific gateway information using the following command:

fiberdriver(config)# ip default gateway 169.254.88.1


The IP information configured does not load until restarting the system or using the command:

ip interface update


Use the following command to save the configuration into permanent (non-volatile) storage:

fiberdriver(config)# write file
fiberdriver(config)# exit


The system does not automatically save configurations to permanent storage. Use the write
file

command to save a configuration before restarting the system. Now the IP configuration is

complete. The default SNMP community names are "public" for read and "private" for write.

Use the description command to change names of the chassis, slot, and port. Use the show
command to verify the change. Chassis names are limited to nine characters.
