If the DHCP client starts, it might configure the appliance with an incorrect host name and
IP address (this could happen if a DHCP server on your network is configured to respond to
any request). To reset the incorrect host name and IP address:
a. Establish a console connection to the appliance.
b. Log into the system using the user name admin and the password password.
c. Enter the following:
rm /config/active
or
mv /config/active /config/active.old
d. Reboot the appliance.
e. Respond to the Hostname? prompt within 30 seconds to prevent the DHCP client from
restarting.
3. At each subsequent prompt, enter the requested configuration information.
For more information about how to respond to the prompts during the initial configuration
process, see the release notes for the Nokia software release you are running.
4. When you are prompted to select an interface, Nokia recommends that you select one of the
Ethernet management interface ports.
To select an interface, enter the number adjacent to the physical ID in the list of connected
interfaces.
Note
A physical ID identifies the interface type (interface_type) and provides information
about its slot number (slot_num), subslot number (subslot_num) and port number
(port_num). The physical ID syntax is:
interface_type-sslot_num/ssubslot_numpport_num
For example, the physical ID for the first port of a two-port Ethernet NIC in slot 1, subslot
2 would be:
eth-s1/s2p1
The Ethernet management interface ports are numbered eth-s3p1 through eth-s3p4.
After you complete the initial configuration, you can use Nokia Network Voyager to configure
the remaining network ports.
