system setup procedures, which includes conguring the IP network settings, you must log in as the
“root” user. After correctly entering the password at this prompt,

the sign on message is shown. It identies the host system as Sonoma D12 CDMA and shows the
software part number, version and build date. The out-of-the-box hostname is set to “Sonoma_D12”,
and the domainname is set to “your.domain”.

This last line is the standard Sonoma D12 CDMA prompt. After conguring the unit, you should
change the passwords using the Linux passwd command issued from the prompt.
If you do not see characters displayed by your terminal program within 30 seconds after the unit is
powered up, you must troubleshoot your setup. An incorrectly wired cable or incorrect port setting in
your terminal emulation program are the most common problems. Refer to Appendix H - Specifica-
tions for the signal connections for the Sonoma.
Once you have successfully established communications with the Sonoma, you may proceed to
congure the network parameters using netconfig (see below). Then you can communicate with
the Sonoma over the network using telnet or ssh and synchronize your network computers to UTC
using NTP.
Using netconfig to Set Up Your IP
NOTE
When setting up the IP addresses on both network port 0 (eth0) and 1 (eth1):
1. Be sure that they are NOT on the same subnet.
2. Configure the default gateway on either port 0 (eth0) or port 1 (eth1), BUT NOT BOTH.
NOTE
If you want to use the HTTP Interface, then be sure to configure the name server IP address during the
netconfig process. The HTTP Interface will not operate properly if this is configured incorrectly. Only
one name server is required, but two gives some redundancy.
