Assigning an IP Address Using the CLI
You can assign an IP address to the device, using command-line interface (CLI).
Note:
To assign an IP address via the CLI:
1.
Connect the device's RS-232 port to either COM1 or COM2 communication port on
your PC (for MP-11x, refer to "Connecting the MP-11x RS-232 Port to Your PC" on
page 20; for MP-124, refer to "Connecting the MP-124 RS-232 Port to Your PC" on
page 31).
2.
Use a serial communication software (e.g., HyperTerminal
communication link with the device, using the following communications port settings:
•
Baud Rate: 9,600 bps for MP-11x; 115,200 bps for MP-124
•
Data Bits: 8
•
Parity: None
•
Stop Bits: 1
•
Flow Control: None
The CLI prompt appears.
3.
At the prompt, type conf, and then press <Enter>; the configuration folder is
accessed.
4.
To view the current network parameters, at the prompt, type GCP IP, and then press
<Enter>; the current network settings are displayed.
5.
Change the network settings by typing the following:
SCP IP [ip_address] [subnet_mask] [default_gateway]
For example,
SCP IP 10.13.77.7 255.255.0.0 10.13.0.1
The new settings take effect on-the-fly and connectivity to the device is active at the
new IP address.
Note: This command requires you to enter all three network parameters (each
separated by a space).
6.
To save the configuration, at the prompt, type SAR, and then press <Enter>; the device
restarts with the new network settings.
Version 6.0
The CLI method for assigning an IP address is not applicable to MP-112 as
this model does not provide RS-232 serial interface.
