Chapter 5 Provisioning
Establishing a Connection to the TimeCreator 1000
Configuring the Ethernet Port
Use the following procedures to configure the TimeCreator 1000 Ethernet
parameters (IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address).
1. Establish a direct serial connection to the TimeCreator 1000 as described in
Communicating Through the Serial Port, on page 72.
2. Provision the IP, Gateway, and Subnet Mask addresses for the TimeCreator
1000. The IT department or site administrator for your location can recommend
specific addresses for these parameters. The mask is specified as a prefix
number which is the number of 1's from the MSB with the remaining bits set to 0.
For example 255.255.255.0 is set with the value 24.Use the dotted decimal
format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to enter the address parameter with the following
commands:
Example
Type
set ip eth0 addr 192.168.0.10 then press Enter.
Type
set ip eth0 mask 24 then press Enter.
Type
set ip eth0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 then press Enter.
Type
set ip eth0 gateway 192.168.0.254 then press Enter.
Type
set ip-state eth0 restart
Connecting Through an Ethernet LAN
1. Ensure that the TimeCreator 1000 is connected to a LAN (see Making
Communications Connections, on page 53 for details).
2. Telnet from your PC to the IP address assigned to the TimeCreator 1000 (see
Configuring the Ethernet Port, on page 73).
3. Type your user name and press Enter. If you are not assigned as a user in the
system, contact the system administrator or see Adding a User, on page 75.
4. Type your assigned password and press Enter. The system prompt appears.
Note: The TimeCreator 1000 default IP address is 10.0.0.100, the
subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, gateway address is 0.0.0.0 (no
gateway), and the broadcast address is 10.0.0.255. If these defaults
are acceptable, the following procedure using the serial port is not
required.
