Assigning The Internet Protocol (Ip) Address - Nortel Call Recording Card User Manual

Configuring the Nortel Call Recording Card
Assigning the Internet Protocol (IP)
address
Nortel Call Recording Card permits two basic methods of assigning IP
addresses to individual cards. These are static assignment using the
maintenance and debug serial port and dynamic assignment using the
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Nortel recommends assigning a static IP address to the card unless a
reserved IP address entry can be made in the DHCP server, which always
gives the reserved IP address to the Nortel Call Recording Card.
Static IP address assignment
When you assign an IP address, you must ensure that you have a unique IP
address, the correct subnet mask and the correct gateway address. An
incorrect IP address or subnet mask can cause the LAN to which the card is
connected to stop responding. If an incorrect gateway address is assigned,
the card is inaccessible beyond its local LAN.
Using static assignment, the operator assigns an IP address, subnet mask,
and default gateway IP address using the serial port interface. After
restarting, the Nortel Call Recording Card retrieves the IP information from
NVRAM and applies it. To switch to this mode of IP assignment, you must
invoke the function lnIsaIPMethodSet with the parameter 2 (that is,
lnIsaIPMethodSet 2). The command sequence to assign a static IP address to
the card is shown in "Command sequence to assign a static IP address" on
page 41.
You must access the card using the maintenance port. To access the shell,
you must enter the correct user name and password.
Note: The default user name is crcadmin and the default password is
crcsecurity. See "Changing the user name and password for command line
access" on page 44 for details on changing these defaults.
