Chapter 3: Basic System Setup
Here is an example of the commands above featuring the addition of two DNS server
IP addresses:
ia# config
ia(config)# system set dns domain "mktg.cabletron.com"
ia(config)# system set dns server "10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11"
ia(config)# save active
8.
Enter the system show dns command to verify the new DNS settings, as shown in the
following example:
ia# system show dns
DNS domain: cabletron.com, DNS server(s): 10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11
9.
Use the ping command to verify that the IA 1100/1200 can resolve the DNS server
name into its IP address, as shown in the following example:
ia# ping ia1
PING ia1.mktg.cabletron.com (10.50.11.12): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.50.11.12: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms
--- ia1.mktg.cabletron.com ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0/0/0 ms
Setting SYSLOG Parameters
The CLI can use SYSLOG messages to communicate the following types of messages to a
SYSLOG server:
•
Fatal – Provide information about events that caused the IA 1100/1200 to crash and
reset.
•
Error – Provide information about errors.
•
Warning – Provide warnings against invalid configuration information and other
conditions that are not necessarily errors. This is the default.
•
Informational – Provide informational messages such as status messages. The
SYSLOG messages that the IA 1100/1200 displays while booting the software and
reading the startup configuration file are examples of Informational messages.
The IA 1100/1200 writes the SYSLOG messages to a SYSLOG daemon on UDP port 514.
You can set the CLI to send all or only some of the message types. By default, the CLI
sends warning, error, and fatal messages but not informational messages to the specified
SYSLOG server.
