Caution
: Test all the new passwords before saving the active configuration to the Startup
configuration file. As shown in the example above, the passwords are shown in the active
configuration in an encrypted format and will also appear this way in the Startup configuration.
To keep your passwords secure, the XP-2000 does not have a command for displaying passwords.
If you forget a password, you can remove the password by entering the following command while
in Configure mode. (See the Enterasys X-Pedition Command Line Interface Reference Manual for
more information.)
Setting the DNS Domain Name and Address
If you want the XP-2000 to be able to access a DNS server, use the following procedure to specify
the domain name and IP address for the DNS server.
1.
Ensure that you are in Enable mode by entering the enable command in the CLI.
2.
Use the following command to verify that the XP-2000 can reach the DNS server by pinging
the server, as shown in the following example:
3.
Ensure that you are in Configure mode by entering the configure command in the CLI.
4.
If you have not done so already, use the interface add ip command to set the IP address and
netmask for the en0 Ethernet interface, as shown in the following example:
Note:
The en0 interface is automatically created by the system and is reserved for the
XP-2000’s management port.
5.
Use the following command to specify the domain name for which the DNS server(s) have
authority:
where <domain-name> is your specified domain name (example:
mktg.company.com
).
