Entering an IP
Address
This section applies only if you have TCP/IP.
The hub needs an IP address so you can communicate with it via Telnet or
SNMP. Other parameters such as subnet mask and gateway addresses are
also required if you have them. As discussed in Chapter 1, you may use
BootP (if you have it) in your IP server to configure the hub with its IP
parameters.
The following procedures ensure your hub is permanently configured with
its own IP parameters, whether or not you have a BootP server.
To enter an IP address:
1. Enter N for Network parameters from the Administration menu.
The following menu appears:
2. Enter A for IP address to get the following menu:
3. Enter the hub’s IP address at the prompt.
The Network parameters menu appears, displaying the IP
address you entered.
NOTE
Each standalone hub in your TCP/IP network must have an IP address.
However, in a concentrator configuration, only the master hub (the module
in the uppermost slot) needs it. The network sees the concentrator as a
single unit through the master.
