The global local IP address settings can be displayed with the show global and show
routes commands.
Setting the Local IP Address
To assign the PortMaster 4 IP addresses that are not limited by network interfaces, use
the following command:
Command> set local-ip-address [1|2|3|4] Ipaddress
For example, to set the local IP address to 10.112.34.17, enter the following command:
Command> set local-ip-address 10.112.34.17
Local IP Address (1) changed from 0.0.0.0 to 10.112.34.17
To set 192.168.54.6 as the second local IP address on the same PortMaster, enter the
following:
Command> set local-ip-address 2 192.168.54.6
Local IP Address (2) changed from 0.0.0.0 to 192.168.54.6
Use the show global command to view local IP addresses.
Configuring an IP Address Pool
You can dynamically assign IP addresses to PPP or SLIP dial-in users. By assigning
addresses as needed from a pool, the PortMaster requires fewer addresses than if each
user is assigned a specific address. When a dial-in connection is closed, the address goes
back into the pool and can be reused.
When creating an address pool, you explicitly identify the first address in the sequence
of addresses available for temporary assignment. The PortMaster allocates one address in
the pool of addresses for each port configured for network dial-in.
To set the value of the first IP address to assign for dial-in ports, use the following
command:
Command> set assigned_address Ipaddress
The default number of addresses available for the address pool is equal to the number of
ports configured for network dial-in. The address pool size is determined during the boot
process. You can also set the number of IP addresses assigned to the pool with the set
pool command.
