Chapter 4 Provisioning
Establishing a Connection to the TimeProvider 5000
Communicating Through the Ethernet Port
To communicate with the TimeProvider 5000 using an Ethernet LAN connection,
you must first configure the Ethernet port through the EIA-232 serial port.
Configuring the Ethernet Port
Use the following procedures to configure the TimeProvider 5000 Ethernet
parameters (IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address).
1. Establish a direct serial connection to the TimeProvider 5000 as described in
Communicating Through the Serial Port, on page 272.
2. Provision the IP, Gateway, and Subnet Mask addresses for the TimeProvider
5000. The IT department or site administrator for your location can recommend
specific addresses for these parameters. Use the dotted decimal format
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to enter the address parameters with the following commands:
Example 1
Using Static IP:
tp5000> set ip imc address 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.254
tp5000> set ip imc restart
Example 2
Using DHCP:
tp5000> set ip-mode imc dhcp
Connecting Through an Ethernet LAN
1. Ensure that the TimeProvider 5000 is connected to a LAN (see Communications
Connections, on page 69 for details).
2. Telnet from your computer to the IP address assigned to the TimeProvider 5000
(see Configuring the Ethernet Port, on page 273).
Note: The TimeProvider 5000 default IP address is 192.168.0.100,
the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, and the gateway address is
0.0.0.0 (no gateway). If these defaults are acceptable, the following
procedure using the serial port is not required.
Note: The telnet firewall is set to Block by default. Use the following
command to set the IMC firewall to Allow for telnet communications:
set firewall imc telnet allow
