The ECS0016 runs a standard Linux kernel so it is also possible to con-
figure the gateway using other standard Linux and Busybox commands
and applications (ifconfig, gettyd, stty etc.) However doing this will not
guarantee these changes are permanent.
Please note: This chapter assumes you already have a certain level of
understanding before you execute Linux kernel level commands.
The Linux Command line
Power up the ECS0016 and connect the “terminal” device: 1.
If you are connecting using the serial line, plug a serial cable •
between the ECS0016 local DB9 port and terminal device. Configure
the serial connection of the “terminal” device/program you are using
to 115200bps, 8 data bits, no parity and one stop bit. If you are using
a program running on a Windows PC as the terminal device, then
the cable is made up from a Cat5 UTP (#440016) cable and two
DB9 to RJ45 adapters (#319000 and #319001)
If you are connecting over the LAN then you will need to •
interconnect the Ethernet ports and direct your terminal emulator
program to the IP address of the ECS0016 (192.168.0.1 by default)
Log on to the ECS0016 by pressing ‘return’ a few times. The ECS0016 2.
will request a username and password. Enter the username root and
the password default. You should now see the command line prompt
which is a hash (#)
