Chapter 10
IP Commands
This chapter shows you how to configure the IP (Internet Protocol) parameters. The IP host
implementation in the AES-100 allows you to manage it over the network.
More often than not, you have more than one AES-100 for a particular installation. Before you start configuring
the AES-100s, make sure that you
1. Plan ahead.
2. Have a complete diagram showing the whole network.
3. Record the IP parameters assigned to the equipment in your network.
10.1 Setting the IP Address
To set the IP address, default gateway and the subnet mask of the Ethernet port of a ADSL Networking Module, use
the following command sequence.
1. 192.168.1.1> ip
2. 192.168.1.1 ip> device delete ether
3. ip> device add ether ether //bridge
4. ip> route delete default
5. ip> route add default 0.0.0.0 00:00:00:00
6. ip> config save
where
= The MAC address of the ADSL Networking Module.
= The IP address you want to configure into the ADSL Networking
Module.
= The default gateway IP address of the ADSL Networking Module.
Line 1 brings you to the IP subsystem.
Line 2 clears the old parameters of the AES-100.
Line 3 allows you to add a new IP address for the AES-100. The MAC address of the AES-100 is displayed in the
command prompt. The system will automatically compute the subnet mask when the system is restarted. If you
want to specify a subnet manually, add the following two commands before line 4:
192.168.1.1 ip> subnet delete ether.home
192.168.1.1 ip> subnet add ether.home ether
where is the subnet mask in hexadecimal, for example “ ff:ff:ff:00 ”.
Line 4 deletes the existing default route.
Line 5 adds the new default route. The default route tells the system where the gateway (next hop) is when the
AES-100 sends frames to a destination that is not on the same subnet as the AES-100.
Line 6 saves the new configuration to the nonvolatile memory.
