Planning Configuration
To enable the remote features of the iBypass switch, you must
assign an IP address to the switch. If you are installing multiple
iBypass switches, determine the IP address range, netmask, and
gateway, if required, before beginning the installation.
Configuring the iBypass Switch
All configuration options, status, and statistics are accessible
from the Command Line Interface (CLI). To get started with the
iBypass switch, you must set an IP address with the CLI.
Do the following to configure the IP addresses of the iBypass
switch using the CLI:
1. Connect a PC to the iBypass switch using the RS232 DB-9
cable. Ensure that the PC has a terminal emulation software
already installed.
2. Launch terminal emulation software such as HyperTerminal
and set communication parameters to:
19200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
3. Connect power to the iBypass switch.
4. At the login prompt, type netoptics and at the password
prompt, type netoptics.
5. Use the set username and set password commands to
change the username and password.
6. Set the iBypass switch IP address by typing:
set ip <ip address>
where <ip address> is the IP address of the iBypass.
7. Set the iBypass switch gateway by typing:
set gateway <ip address>
where <ip address> is the gateway address.
8. Set the iBypass switch netmask by typing:
set netmask <ip address>
where <ip address> is the netmask.
