Patton electronics SMARTNODE 4552, Quick Start Manual

SmartNode™

You can check the connection with the ping command. For the example above ping 172.16.1.100 from a PC on 
the IP network. 
You may now start to configure the SmartNode from scratch using the CLI commands. For a detailed 
description of the CLI refer to the SmartWare software configuration guide (SCG) available on the CD-ROM 
and online at: 

www.patton.com/voip

. 

We recommend however that you start your configuration from a template. See step three for further details. 
 
 
 

Download a configuration example, adapt to your network and load 
onto the SmartNode 

We recommend that you use an application specific configuration template called “Application Note” to start 
your SmartNode configuration. A selection of Application Notes is available on the CD-ROM and online from 

http://www.patton.com/voip/appnotes.shtml

. Select an Application Note which matches your requirements. 

Adapt the configuration as described in the Application Note to your network (do not forget to modify the IP 
address) and copy the modified configuration to a TFTP server. The SmartNode can now load its configuration 
from this server. 
In this example we assume the TFTP server is running on the PC with the IP address 172.16.1.10 and the 
configuration named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server. 
 

172.16.1.100(cfg)#

copy tftp://172.16.1.10/SN.cfg startup-config

Download...100% 

172.16.1.100(cfg)# 

You now need to reload the SmartNode to activate the downloaded startup configuration. Type in the 
following commands. 

Note

 that you MUST answer NO when asked to overwrite the startup configuration. 

172.16.1.100(cfg)#

reload

Running configuration has been changed. 

Do you want to copy the 'running-config' to the 'startup-config'? 

Press 'yes' to store, 'no' to drop changes : 

no

Press 'yes' to restart, 'no' to cancel : 

yes

The system is going down
