Hi Kevin thanks for the reply. Just want to ask after doing this procedures
1. Insert new C-LAN into cabinet slot.
2. Put network amphenol adapter on same slot.
3. Run ‘cha node-n ip’
A. Type in C-LAN Network Name and IP
4. Run ‘add ip-in (board location, i.e. 01C12)
A. Enter the Node Name from the ‘cha node-names ip’ screen/C-LAN Name above.
B.Change Subnet address if necessary.
C. Enter Gateway address from above.
D. Do not Enable Ethernet Port yet.
E. Set Network Region to ‘1’ unless otherwise.
F. Change Ethernet Options to:
I. Auto ‘N’
II. Speed ‘100’
III. Duplex ‘Full’
5. Do a ‘disp com link’
A. Look for the next unused link and write it down. ______________
6. Run ‘add data next’ (or the data mod ext given to you)
A. Change Type to ‘ethernet’
B. Put in slot and port of C-LAN, i.e. 01A0517 (port 17 for C-LAN)
C. Put in link from above (‘disp com link’)
D. Under ‘Name’ put in Network name of C-LAN and add ‘Data Mod’
7. Plug in network cable.
8. Run ‘cha ip-in (board location)
A. Tab down to ‘Enable Ethernet Port’ and set to ‘Y’.
9. Run ‘sa t’ to save translations.
10. Run ‘status clan-port XXXXX17’
A. Check for Active Channel 1, Link Status, Service State, and Physical/MAC address.
11. Ping a remote IP.
A. Run ‘ping ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx board (new C-LAN board location).
After doing those procedures in the CLAN what shall I do next? Do I need to enter the IP address and name of the in the node names IP of the CMS Server? What is the purpose of adding its name and ip in the node-names ip? Or just the addresses of CLAN? Since our CMS having X.25 connection is working fine and we want to change the connection through CLAN, Is it okay if I use first another link like using link 2 (since we use link 1 in our first connection)wherein I will activate first the CLAN then after that I will disable the first connection using the first procedure you told me. I'm glad to hear again from you. Thanks in Advance.
