GE Multilink ML3000 User Manual

1–14 MULTILINK ML3000 ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS SWITCH – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
 From the PC (or from the switch) ping the IP address specified for the
switch to ensure connectivity.
 From the switch ping the default gateway specified (ensure you are
connected to the network to check for connectivity) to ensure
network connectivity.
Syntax:
ipconfig [ip=<ip-address>] [mask=<subnet-mask>] [dgw=<gateway>]
An example is shown below.
ML3000# ipconfig ip=3.94.247.41 mask=255.255.252.0
dgw=3.94.247.41
ML3000# save
NOTE
Note
This manual assumes the reader is familiar with IP addressing schemes as well as how net
mask is used and how default gateways and routers are used in a network.
Reboot gives an opportunity to save the configuration prior to shutdown. For a reboot,
simply type in the command
reboot. Note that even though the passwords are not
changed, they can be changed later.
ML3000# reboot
Proceed on rebooting the switch? ['Y' or 'N'] Y
Do you wish to save current configuration? ['Y' or 'N'] Y
ML3000#
The ML3000 forces an answer by prompting with a “Y” or a “N” to prevent accidental
keystroke errors and loss of work.
The parameters can be viewed at any time by using the
show command. The show
command will be covered in more detail later in various sections throughout the
document.
The example below illustrates the basic setup parameters. You can use
show setup or
show sysconfig commands to view setup parameters.
