Configuring a Leased Line Connection

Note – The PortMaster 4 also supports numbered IP interfaces on leased lines, but
Lucent does not recommended this method because it wastes IP address space.
Configuring a Leased Line Connection
Before you configure a synchronous serial port for a network hardwired leased line, you
must configure global settings on the PortMaster 4, and you must configure the
Ethernet interface. Follow the procedures in this section to configure a T1 or E1 line for
leased line service.

Configuring Global Settings

Follow this procedure to configure the global settings on the PortMaster 4.
1. Set the IP address of the gateway router.
Command> set gateway Ipaddress
2. Set the name of the PortMaster on the other end of the connection.
Command> set sysname [String]
3. Save the configuration.
Command> save all

Configuring Ethernet Interface Settings

Note – Lucent recommends that you configure Ether1 if you configure only one
Ethernet interface. If you configure both, you must connect them to separate Ethernet
segments. Ether0 operates at 10Mbps and is physically on the manager board. Use
Ether1 for netboots, SNMP, RADIUS, and syslog.
Follow this procedure to configure the Ethernet interface on the PortMaster 4:
1. Set the IP address of the Ethernet interface.
Command> set ether1 address Ipaddress
2. Set the netmask of the Ethernet interface.
Command> set ether1 netmask Netmask
3. Set the broadcast address.
Command> set ether1 broadcast high
4. Enable RIP routing on the interface.
Command> set ether1 rip on
See the PortMaster 4 Command Line Reference for information about RIP-2.
