Use the set config command to configure or display entries in the network parameters configuration table, which holds
Anyone can use the set config command to display entries in the network configuration table. Root privileges are required to use this command to configure entries.
Enter the set config command as shown below to add and change entries in the network parameter configuration table.
set config [dhcp={on|off}]
[dns=ip_addr] [domain=domain]
[gateway=ip_addr] [ip=ip_addr] [myname=name]
[realport=tcp_port#] [redirect={listen|ignore}]
[save={on|off}] [sockets=socket#] [submask=mask]
[tbreak={std|any|none}]
Enter the set config command as shown below to add and change entries in the network parameter configuration table.
set config [boothost=ip_addr] [bootfile=file]
[dhcp={on|off}] [dns=ip_addr] [domain=domain]
[gateway=ip_addr] [ip=ip_addr] [myname=name] [nameserv=ip_addr]

Command Field |
Description |
| boothost | The IP address of a host from which the device/terminal server can boot via TFTP. |
| bootfile | The name of a boot file on a TFTP host. See the host system administrator to determine whether it is necessary to specify the full path to satisfy the TFTP implementation on the host. |
| dhcp | Enable/disable DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). Enabling DHCP causes the PortServer to obtain an IP address from the host server. If DHCP is disabled, a static IP address must be defined for the PortServer, using the set config command's ip option. on - enable DHCP (default) off - disable DHCP |
| dns | Specifies the IP address of a domain name server. Cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
|
domain |
Specifies the name of the device/terminal server domain. Cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
|
gateway |
Specifies the IP address of the default gateway. Cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
|
ip |
The device/terminal server IP address. The device/terminal server can obtain this address from a RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) server if:
The IP address cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
|
myname |
Specifies the device/terminal server DNS name. Cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
| nameserv | Specifies the IP address of a name server in the device/terminal server domain. |
| ramsize=show | Displays the amount of RAM the device/terminal server is equipped with. |
|
redirect |
listen - means the device/terminal server accepts ICMP routing redirect messages. Use this option, only if you have not configured the PortServer to forward RIP packets. ignore - means the device/terminal server discards ICMP routing redirect messages. The default is ignore. |
| realport | Specifies the TCP port number used for RealPort connections.
This port number is used by RealPort to establish connections.
The default is 771. |
| romversion=show | Displays the version of the firmware in the device/terminal server. |
| save | on - saves configuration changes in flash memory (default). off - configuration changes are discarded when the PortServer is turned off or reset. |
| sockets | Sets a socket service other than the default of 2000. |
|
submask |
Specifies the subnet mask for the device/terminal server subnetwork. Cannot be changed if dhcp=on. |
|
tbreak |
Sets the telnet break keystroke. Once a telnet connection is initiated but before the connection is established, the connection can be broken by entering a designated keystroke. This keystroke is determined by these tbreak settings. std - configures tbreak so only <Ctrl-C> will break a telnet connection Example: set config tbreak=std any - configures tbreak so any keystroke will break a telnet connection Example: set config tbreak=any none - configures tbreak so no keystroke will break a telnet connection Example: set config tbreak=none The default is std. |
| tftpboot | yes - always boot from the boot host specified in the boothost field. smart - attempt to boot from the boot host specified in the boothost field. If the attempt fails, boot from the ROM in the device/terminal server. no - boot from the ROM in the device/terminal server. |
In this example, the set config command displays the network parameter configuration table.
