===== Set ip address on ethernet port =====

Note subnet mask needs to be entered in hex!  i.e. 255.255.255.0 == ff.ff.ff.00

<code>
ibm8265_01# set device ip_address eth 192.168.1.27 ff.ff.ff.00 
IP address and mask set
ibm8265_01# set device default_gateway 192.168.1.1 
Default gateway set
ibm8265_01# 
</code>

Reboot is not needed, access to telnet will now work. Note, ssh is not supported.

<code>
$ telnet ibm8265-01
Trying 192.168.1.27...
Connected to ibm8265-01.
Escape character is '^]'.

Module 13 is disabled, let's enable and disable it (connected and isolated in IBM speak):-
<code>
ibm8265_01# set module 13 connected 
Slot 13:Module set
ibm8265_01# 
ibm8265_01# set module 13 isolated 
Slot 13:Module set
ibm8265_01#
</code>

Isolated means it can be swapped whilst the chassis is powered on. Slots 1 - 17 are for network modules, slots 18 & 19 are for power control modules. Note that slots 9 & 10 HAVE to be used for the CPSW module in single fabric mode, if a redundant CPSW module is fitted, it has to go in slots 11 & 12.



===== Show port status =====

Port 17.1 is connected to a Fore / Marconi PCA200e 155MB/s pci card on a computer running Centos 6.5, seen below, atmsigd has been started but not ilmid,  in the second example, ilmid has been started.

===== Saving Configuration =====

Changes are activated immediately they are made, but are not saved to nv ram so will be lost on a device reload. There are several save options, but save all does the lot in one go.

  ibm8265_01# save all
