Juniper NETSCREEN-5XP - Setting an IP Address for Managing the Device; Accessing the Device Using the Webui

Setting an IP Address for Managing the Device
NetScreen-5XP 13
SETTING AN IP ADDRESS FOR MANAGING THE DEVICE
The default IP address of the Trusted interface on the NetScreen-5XP device is
192.168.1.1. This is the IP address that you use to manage the device through a Telnet
session or with the WebUI management application. If you do not wish to use this default
IP address, you need to assign a new one.
To set the IP address of the NetScreen-5XP Trusted interface:
1. Choose an unused IP address within the current address range of your Local
Area Network.
2. Set the IP address of the device to this unused IP address by executing the
following command:
set interface trust ip ip_addr/mask
For example, to set the IP address and subnet mask of the NetScreen-5XP device
to 10.100.2.183 and 16, respectively:
set interface trust ip 10.100.2.183/16
3. To confirm the new setting, execute the following command:
get interface
You should see that the IP address for the Trusted interface is the IP address
you set.
ACCESSING THE DEVICE USING THE WEBUI
To access the NetScreen-5XP device with the WebUI management application:
1. Connect your computer (or your LAN hub) to the Trusted interface, as described
in “Connecting the Device to Your Internal Network, Workstation, or Devices”
on page 7.
2. Launch your browser, enter the IP address for the Trusted interface in the URL
field, and then press Enter.
For example, if you assigned the Trusted interface of the device the IP address of
10.100.2.183/16, enter the following:
10.100.2.183
The NetScreen WebUI software displays the login prompt.
