Command Description

Node Address—Use this command to change the local node address. This is not the

Ethernet IP address but is the number on the prompt line [0.0.0.1]. The value for each node

master must be unique. Never set first octet greater than 127. Will cause momentary reset

as it updates database records. Used by Verilink’s Node Manager application to identify

components within the system.
