Table  3-2: Adding a BootP Client 
 
3. 
Use the gateway's chassis reset button to physically reset the gateway, causing it to use 
BootP; the gateway changes its network parameters to the values provided by BootP. 
3.2.2 
Assigning an IP Address Using CLI via RS-232 
You can assign an IP address to the gateway using CLI by establishing a serial connection 
between your PC and the gateway. 
¾
  To assign an IP address using CLI via RS-232, take these 5 steps: 
1. 
Connect the gateway's RS-232 port (labeled RS-232), located on the rear panel, to your PC.  
2. 
Use serial communication software (e.g., HyperTerminal
TM
) to connect to the gateway. Set 
your serial communication software to the following communications port settings: Baud 
Rate: 115,200 bps; Data bits: 8; Parity: None; Stop bits: 1; Flow control: None. 
3. 
At the CLI prompt, type conf, and then press <Enter>; the configuration folder is accessed. 
4. 
To check the current network parameters, at the prompt, type GCP IP, and then press 
<Enter>; the current network settings are displayed. 
5. 
Change the network settings by typing the following: 
SCP IP
 [ip_address] [subnet_mask] [default_gateway] 
(e.g., SCP IP 10.13.77.7 255.255.0.0 10.13.0.1)  
Note:
 This command requires you to enter all three network parameters (each separated by 
a space). 
The new settings take effect on-the-fly and connectivity is active at the new IP address. To save 
the configuration, at the prompt, type SAR, and then press <Enter>; the gateway restarts with the 
new network settings.
