Chapter 33 Ip Commands; Setting The Ip Address - ZyXEL Communications IES-1000 User Manual

This chapter shows you how to configure the IP (Internet Protocol) parameters. The IP host
More often than not, you have more than one IES-1000 for a particular installation. Before you start configuring
the IES-1000s, make sure that you
1. Plan ahead.
2. Have a complete diagram showing the whole network.
3. Record the IP parameters assigned to the equipment in your network.

Setting the IP Address

To set the IP address, default gateway and the subnet mask of the Ethernet port of a network module, use the
following command sequence.
1. 192.168.1.1> ip
2. 192.168.1.1 ip> enable ether [<new ip address> [<ip mask>]]
3. <new ip address> ip> route delete default
4. <new ip address> ip> route add default 0.0.0.0 <default gateway>
00:00:00:00
5. <new ip address> ip> config save
where
<new ip address>
<ip mask>
<default gateway> =
Line 1 brings you to the IP subsystem.
Line 2 allows you to add a new IP address for the IES-1000. The IP address of the IES-1000 is displayed in the
command prompt. If you don't enter the subnet mask, the system automatically computes the subnet mask when
the system is restarted.
Line 3 deletes the existing default route.
Line 4 adds the new default route. The default route tells the system where the gateway (next hop) is when the
IES-1000 sends packets to a destination that is not on the same subnet as the IES-1000.
Line 5 saves the new configuration to the nonvolatile memory.
For example, if you want the IES-1000 to have 192.168.1.3 as the IP address, 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask
and 192.168.1.233 for the default gateway, you may use the following command sequence:
