To permit system initialization and basic management configuration
activities following commands are needed.
- Setting and changing the gateway name:
set hostname <hostname>
-
The parameter hostname terms an arbitrary name for
the gateway and it must be a string of characters (e.g. set hostname
Gateway1). It corresponds with the boot line parameter "targetname".
- Setting and changing the IP-Address for the ethernet port:
set ip address <ip address>
set ip subnet <ip subnet mask>
-
The parameter ip address is a string in the form of
x.x.x.x and x is an integer (e.g. 1.2.3.4)
The parameter ip subnet mask is a string in the form
of x.x.x.x and x is an integer between 0 and 255 (e.g. 255.255.255.224).
A set or a change of the IP-address or IP subnet for the ethernet
port will probably require a gateway reboot to become effective.
- Setting and changing the IP-address of the default gateway from static
routes table:
set default gateway <ip address>
-
The parameter ip address is a string in the form of
x.x.x.x and x is an integer (e.g. 1.2.3.4)
- Display/change chosen identifier:
get id <parameter name>
set id <parameter name>
