Monitoring and Managing Your ELS100-16TX

LCM displays the current IP address table, for example:

To change the subnet mask, at the LCM prompt:

1. Type

ipaddr

For example,

ipaddr 6 192.138.217.40 255.255.240.0

would set

the subnet mask for port 6 to 255.255.240.0. LCM responds by
redisplaying the address table.

To assign a new IP address, refer to Section 3.1.

4.5.4 Changing a Community Name

A community name is similar to a password. You use the same
steps to assign a new community name or to change an existing
community name. This sets the MIB variable

sxadminAnyPass

. You

can then enter a community name to perform any

SNMP

sets.

To assign a community name, at the LCM prompt:

1. Type

community

2. Enter the old community name.

If one has not been assigned, you do not need to enter
anything. LCM prompts you for the new community name.

Note:

When you change the subnet mask for a port, you must also enter
the IP address for that port. Make sure you enter the IP address for
the port correctly; whatever you enter becomes the IP address.
