Out-Of-Band Cli Access - Kontron CP6930 User Manual

2.5.1 Out-of-Band CLI Access

The CLI can be accessed via serial port (using the front plate connector and provided adapter or an appropri-
ate RIO module) or Fast Ethernet (via the front plate RJ45 connector).
2.5.1.1 Serial Port
The serial port is ready to use offhand without further configuration.
Port settings are:
• 115200 bps (serial speed might be different for customized board variants)
• 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit (8N1)
• no flow control
2.5.1.2 Fast Ethernet Serviceport
The Gigabit Ethernet serviceport on the CP6930 front plate has no IP address set by default, it is necessary to
assign an IP address statically or enable dhcp on the serviceport. Because the required configuration steps
are done in the CLI, an initial access using the serial port is required.
The procedure for assigning an IP address to the serviceport is described in the following. User input is
printed in bold letters.
1. Connect to serial port on the front plate (using the Kontron DB9 adapter cable) or RIO module (using a
RJ45 straight cable).
2. Ensure that the board is powered up.
3. Log in as admin and enter privileged mode by typing 'enable' (no passwords required by default).
User:admin
Password:
(Ethernet Fabric) >enable
Password:
(Ethernet Fabric) #
4. Set IP address and netmask. (see below for an example IP address setting)
(Ethernet Fabric) #serviceport ip 192.168.50.107 255.255.255.0
The GbE management interface is available from now on.
Alternatively, DHCP can be set for the serviceport
(Ethernet Fabric) #serviceport protocol dhcp
An IP address will be assigned to the serviceport by a DHCP server.
5. Save configuration using the 'write mem' command and confirm with 'y''
(Ethernet Fabric) #write mem
This operation may take a few minutes.
Management interfaces will not be available during this time.
Are you sure you want to save? (y/n) y
