5.5 IP Network Configuration
IP addresses are used to route packets from place to place on an intranet/internet. If
you are not part of an established network, and your Ethernet segment is isolated, e.g.,
using an isolated Ethernet hub, you can choose "private" addresses from one of the
reserved ranges of three different classes: A, B, and C.
Table 13: Reserved Private IP Address Ranges for Classes A, B, and C
Class Minimum Address Maximum Address
A 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255
B 172.16.0.0 172.31.255.255
C 192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
The MTAS-CM is preconfigured with the following network address.
• IP
Address: 10.0.2.100
• Subnet
Mask: 255.255.255.0
• Gateway:
10.0.2.20
To change the IP address of the MTAS-CM, the user must be logged in to the TL1
command interface as specified in Section 5.4 Communicating with the MTAS. At the
TL>> prompt, the user can change the network settings using the following procedure.
Step 1. Login from the PC using TL1 command ACT-USER.
ACT-USER::ROOT:1::PUBLIC;
“ROOT” is the system administrator User ID (UID) and “PUBLIC” (in capital
letters) is the default password.
NOTE: To prevent unauthorized access, change your password as soon as possible
and store this password in a safe place.
On success, the user should see something similar to:
MTAS_106 70-01-01 00:39:38
M 1 COMPLD
“UID=ROOT:LASTLOGIN=Thu Jan 1 00:28:41 1970,UNSUCCESSFULATTEMPTS=0”
;
And a TL1 prompt.
