262 Install and conﬁgure IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) node

•

"yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy" is the ELAN network interface gateway (router)

IP address on the ELAN subnet. If the TM 3.1 PC is connected

locally to the LAN and there is no ELAN gateway, then the

gateway IP address is "0.0.0.0".

•

"zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz" is the subnet mask for the ELAN network

interface IP address of Leader 0 on the ELAN subnet.

All ITG shell commands are case-sensitive. A space separates the

command from the ﬁrst parameter. The three parameters must each

be enclosed in quotation marks and there must be a comma and no

spaces separating the three parameters.

The ELAN gateway (router) IP address is used on reboot to create

the IP route table default network route only if (1) there is no active

leader that has this card’s ELAN network interface MAC address in

its node properties ﬁle and

(2) this card’s node properties ﬁle is empty (size 0 Kb).

IP addresses and subnet masks must be entered in dotted decimal

format.

If the network administrator has provided the subnet mask in CIDR

format, convert it to dotted decimal format before entering it. For

example: 10.1.1.1/20 must be converted to IP address 10.1.1.1 with

subnet mask 255.255.240.0. To convert subnet mask from CIDR

format to dotted decimal format refer to Appendix "Subnet mask

conversion from CIDR to dotted decimal format" (page 457).

Press Enter.

Press the Reset button on the faceplate to reboot the Leader 0 IP

trunk card.

After the reboot is completed, the Leader 0 card is in a state of

"backup leader". The faceplate display shows "BLDR." It cannot

yet be in a state of "active leader", until the node properties have

been successfully transmitted from TM 3.1 to the Leader 0 card.
