Configure network settings
To configure the router with an IP address as part of an existing network, use the following
commands.
Command line
Note The DHCP server will still operate unless it is disabled.
1. Set the IP address of Eth 0:
et h 0 i paddr xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx
2. Set the subnet mask for Eth 0:
et h 0 mask xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx
For example, to assign the IP address 192.168.10.254/24, enter:
et h 0 i paddr 192. 168. 10. 254
et h 0 mask 255. 255. 255. 0
Note When the subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0, this value does not display in the output
of the config c show command because 255.255.255.0 is a default value.
3. To disable the DHCP server, use the ipmin ! option with the dhcp command. This command
removes the minimum IP address for DHCP, which in turn disables the DHCP server. The
exclamation point (!) character removes a value or sets it back to its default.
dhcp 0 i pmi n !
4. To configure the DHCP server for a different subnet, use the ipmin option with the dhcp
command by setting the minimum IP address to the start of the DHCP pool on the new subnet:
dhcp 0 i pmi n xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx
5. Set the number of IP addresses in the DHCP pool:
dhcp 0 i pr ange <val ue>
where <val ue> is a number between 1-255, representing the number of addresses that the
DHCP server should serve within the DHCP pool.
6. Set the IP gateway address that the DHCP clients should use. Normally, this address is the
router’s LAN IP address.
dhcp 0 gat eway xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx
7. Set the subnet mask DHCP clients should use:
dhcp 0 mask xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx
