If a modem is connected, configure the router to make and/or accept calls via
the modem. To set the CDCONTROL parameter to “CONNECT” and the
FLOW parameter to “HARDWARE”, enter the command:
set asyn cdcontrol=connect flow=hardware
If the terminal or modem is used with communications settings other than the
default settings, then configure the asynchronous port to match the terminal or
modem settings using the SET ASYN command.
See the router’s online help or the Interfaces chapter in the Software Reference
for more information on how to configure the asynchronous port.
Logging In
When you access the router from a terminal or PC connected to the RS-232
terminal port (asyn0), or via a Telnet or HTTP connection, you must enter a
login name and password to gain access to the command prompt. When the
router is supplied, it has a manager account with an initial password friend.
Enter your login name at the login prompt:
login: manager
Enter the password at the password prompt:
password: friend
After you log into the manager account you can enter commands from this
document and from the Software Reference.
Assigning an IP Address
To configure the router to perform IP routing (for example, to access the
Internet) you need to configure IP. You also need to configure IP if you want to
manage the router from a Telnet session or with the GUI. For detailed
instructions on accessing the router with the GUI, see
. The AR750S has an IP address assigned by default.
For the default configuration, see the AR700 Series Router Installation and Safety
Guide.
First enable IP, using the command:
enable ip
Then, add an IP address to each of the router interfaces that you want to
process IP traffic. For example, for Ethernet port 0, use the command:
add ip interface=eth0 ipaddress=ipadd mask=mask
where:
■
ipadd is an unused IP address on your LAN.
■
mask is the subnet mask (for example 255.255.255.0)
