Step 5
Enter the following command to configure a hostname by which the system will be recognized on the network:
[local]host_name(config)# system hostname host_name
host_name is the name by which the system will be recognized on the network. The hostname is an alphanumeric string
of 1 through 63 characters that is case sensitive.
Step 6
Configure the network interfaces on the MIO/UMIO/MIO2 using the following instructions:
a) Enter the context configuration mode by entering the following commands:
[local]host_name(config)# context local
[local]host_name(config-ctx)#
b) Enter the following command to specify a name for the interface:
[local]host_name(config-ctx)# interface interface_name
interface_name is the name of the interface expressed as an alphanumeric string of 1 through 79 characters that is
case sensitive. The following prompt appears as the system enters the Ethernet Interface Configuration mode:
[local]host_name(config-if-eth)#
c) Configure an IP address for the interface configured in the previous step by entering the following command:
{ ip address | ipv6 address } ipaddress subnetmask
If you are executing this command to correct an address or subnet that was mis-configured with the Quick Setup
Wizard, you must verify the default route and port binding configuration. Use step 11 and step 6 of this procedure.
If there are issues, perform steps 7e through 7k to reconfigure the information.
d) Enter the following command to exit the Ethernet interface configuration mode:
[local]host_name(config-if-eth)# exit
[local]host_name(config-ctx)#
e) Configure a static route, if required, to point the system to a default gateway. Entering the following command:
{ ip | ipv6 } route gw_address interface_name
f) Enter the following to exit from the context configuration mode:
[local]host_name(config-ctx)# exit
[local]host_name(config)#
g) Enter the Ethernet Port Configuration mode:
port ethernet slot#/port#
h) Bind the port to the interface that you created in step 7b. Binding associates the port and all of its settings to the
interface. Enter the following command:
[local]host_name(config-port-<slot#/port#>)# bind interface interface_name local
[local]host_name(config-port-<slot#/port#>)# no shutdown
interface_name is the name of the interface that you configured in step 7b.
i) Exit the Ethernet Interface Configuration mode by entering the command:
[local]host_name(config-port-<slot#/port#>)# exit
[local]host_name(config)#
Refer below for instructions on configuring the MIO/UMIO/MIO2 management interface with a second
IP address.
