How can I configure IP address

A default IP and a default subnet mask are assigned in the device at delivery. If these settings do not correspond to the network settings, change data via the serial interface. In this way you do not have to change the configuration of network settings of a specific PC.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Connect the supplied null modem cable to the SONARPLEX appliance. Observe the information relating to the ports of the corresponding azeti SONARPLEX model provided in the supplied data sheet.
  2. Connect the null model cable to the serial interface of a PC.
  3. On the PC, start a terminal program (Putty, HyperTerminal etc) to establish a serial connection with SONARPLEX appliance. Settings: 115.200 baud, 8,N,1.
    Enter the following access data:
    • user name: super
    • password: Is supplied separately with each appliance.
  4. Use the following commands to display and change the settings of the SONARPLEX appliance:
    • show ip: Displays the current network configuration.
    • ip address: Changes IP address and subnet mask.
                         Syntax: ip address [ip_address] [net mask]           
                         Example: ip address 192.168.7.25 255.255.255.0
    • ip dns: Changes DNS settings.
                  Syntax: ip dns [dns_address]
                  Example: ip dns 192.168.7.20
    • ip gateway: Changes gateway settings.
                         Syntax: ip gateway [gw_address]
                         Example: ip gateway 192.168.7.30
    • erase flash: Resets all settings to the default values.
