IBM Ethernet Switch c-series Installation and User Guide
For example, to assign the IP address 192.22.3.44 and sub-net mask 255.255.255.0 to
Ethernet interface 1/1, do the following.
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.
NetIron> enable
2. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
NetIron# configure terminal
NetIron(config)#
3. Configure the IP address and sub-net mask for Ethernet interface 1/1 by
entering the following commands:
NetIron(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
NetIron(config-if-e10000-1/1)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
Syntax: enable [<password>]
Syntax: configure terminal
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask> [secondary]
or
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits> [secondary]
Use the secondary parameter if you have already configured an IP address within
the same sub-net on the interface.
By default, all interfaces on the c-series switches are disabled. To enable an
interface, you must enter the enable command at the appropriate interface
configuration level of the CLI. For example, to enable the management interface,
enter the enable command at the management interface configuration level of the
CLI:
NetIron(config-if-mgmt-1)# enable
Syntax: enable
You can disable each of these interfaces using the disable command at the
appropriate interface configuration level of the CLI. For example, to disable the
management port, enter the disable command at the management interface
configuration level of the CLI:
NetIron(config-if-mgmt-1)# disable
Syntax: disable
For security reasons, by default, the telnet server is disabled on the switch. To
enable the telnet server and allow access via telnet to the switch from an external
host, execute the following:
NetIron(config)# telnet server
(Privileged EXEC Level)
(Global CONFIG Level)
