2.5.2
In-Band CLI Access
The GbE switch network port (in-band management access) on the CP6924 has no IP address set by default, it is necessary
to assign an IP address either statically or by using DHCP to the network port. Because the required configuration steps are
done in the CLI, an initial access using the serial port is required.
The procedure for assigning an IP address to the network port is described in the following. User input is printed in bold let-
ters.
6. Connect to serial port on the front plate (using the Kontron DB9 adapter cable) or RIO module (using a RJ45 straight
cable).
7. Ensure that the board is powered up.
8. Log in as
admin
and enter privileged mode by typing ’
