IMC Networks FiberLinX - Manual (Page 28)

Command List
• I = Enter New Saved Parameter Values
• P = Change Password
• T = New Trap Destination
• K = Remove ALL Trap Destinations
• C = New Community String
• U = Delete ALL Community Strings
• E = End Session
NOTE: You must reboot after making any modifications to the Saved
Values or changes will not take effect. To reboot, type the word
“Reboot” (no quote marks) at the prompt on the main configuration
screen, or turn the device’s power OFF then ON again.
NOTE: Because the Delete key does not work on VT-100 terminal
emulators, use the F2 key instead.
Assigning TCP/IP Information
To modify the Saved Parameter Values (i.e., assign IP address and subnet
mask), press I. You will be instructed to enter the IP address and subnet
mask for the connected device. Press Enter after each. You may also assign
a default gateway, if desired (press Enter to skip).
When finished, press Enter, then type “Reboot” for changes to take
effect. The Saved Values and Current Values should now both display the
changes made (e.g., new IP address and subnet mask).
Creating Community Strings
The default community string is named “public” and has read/write
access. For security reasons, IMC Networks recommends you set up two
communities: one with read-only only (for general use), the other with
read/write access (for the administrator).
To create a new community string, go to the main configuration screen
and press C. Enter the name of the new community (up to 16 characters,
no spaces allowed) and press Enter. Then type one of the following options
to assign the community string’s access rights:
• R = read-only access
• W = read/write access
• Enter = abort
Press Enter.
