INITIALIZATION
Connecting to the unit requires either:
A direct physical connection with an Ethernet cable or with a serial RS-232
cable
A network connection
Connecting with the Ethernet cable allows you to use of the Web Interface and
SNMP in addition to the CLI. Connecting with a serial connection allows you to
congure and manage the unit with the CLI.
Using a serial connection, you can access the unit through a terminal emulation
program such as HyperTerminal. (See “HyperTerminal Connection Properties” in
the Tsunami QuickBridge.11 Reference Manual.)
Setting the IP Address
With ScanTool (a software utility that is included on the product installation
CD), you can nd out the current IP address of the unit and, if necessary,
change it so that is appropriate for your network.
ScanTool lets you nd the IP address of a Tsunami QuickBridge.11 unit by
referencing the MAC address in a Scan List, or to assign an IP address if the
correct one has not been assigned. The tool automatically detects the units
installed on your network segment, regardless of IP address, and lets you
congure each unit’s IP settings. In addition, you can use ScanTool to download
new software to a unit that does not have a valid software image installed.
To discover and set/change the IP address of the unit:
Run ScanTool on a computer connected to the same LAN subnet as the
unit, or a computer directly connected to the unit with a cross-over
Ethernet cable. Double-click the ScanTool icon on the Windows desktop to
launch the program. If the icon is not on your desktop, click Start > All
Programs > Tsunami > QuickBridge.11 [Model] > Scan Tool.
ScanTool scans the subnet for QuickBridge.11 units and displays the
units it nds in the main window. If necessary, click Rescan to re-scan
the subnet and update the display. You can assign a new IP address to
one unit, even if more than one unit has the same (default) IP address
10.0.0.1, but the new IP address must be unique to allow the use of the
management interfaces.
Select the unit for which you want to set the IP address and click Change.
The Change dialog window is displayed.
To set the IP address manually, ensure that Static is selected as the IP
Address Type and ll in the IP Address and Subnet Mask suitable for
