setip command
Use the setip command from a LAC bash shell to set certain Windows 2000 specific settings. To get to a 
bash shell:
1
Telnet to the S8100 over any interface.
2
Login.
3
Enter bash at the LAC prompt.
Once you are in a LAC bash shell you can run setip.
NOTE:
Setip settings require a reboot before taking effect. Set every necessary parameter before 
issuing the reboot command.
Display current settings
To display current settings, run setip with no parameters.
Setip allows setting the customer’s LAN address along with subnet mask, gateway, DNS and WINS 
settings. It also allows setting the machine name and the RAS IP addresses.
Set the machine name in Windows
To set the machine name:
1
In a bash shell, type setip name=machineName. Limit the machine name to 10 characters. Setip 
allows you to enter more characters; however INTUITY AUDIX only displays the first 10 
characters of the machine name in its administration window.
Example:setip name=mysite
NOTE:
After having set the machine name, the setip command displays the new settings and the 
old settings.
NOTE:
You will also need to set the host name. See
