Setting In-Band Management Ip Address Parameters From The Ip.cfg File On A Usb Device - Avaya 5900 Series Quick Start Configuration

Configuring management IP addresses using ACLI
Setting in-band management IP address parameters from
the ip.cfg file on a USB device
If the switch does not obtain an in-band management IP address through BootP, you can load the IP
address and optionally new switch software and configuration from the USB memory device using
the ip.cfg file.
Note:
The file name, ip.cfg, is case-insensitive.
If a properly formatted file exists on a USB port, the switch uses that ip.cfg as the first option,
rather than the last. You can specify one or more of the optional parameters in the ip.cfg file. All
of the parameters are optional.
The following table describes the ip.cfg file parameters:
Parameter
IP <A.B.C.D> | <WORD>
Mask <xx.xx.xx.xx>
Gateway <A.B.C.D> | <WORD>
SNMPread <string>
SNMPwrite <string>
VLAN <number>
USBdiag <string>
USBascii <string>
USBagent <string>
NEXTIP, NEXTMask, and NEXTGateway
Note:
If you download an ASCII file or diag/image with an ip.cfg file, the specific ASCII file or diag/
image must be present on the USB device.
