Configuring network settings using the CLI
For details about each command, see Overview of commands.
- To set the IP address and netmask of a network interface, execute the following command:
config system interface
edit {port1 | port2 | port3 | port4 }
set ip <ip_address> <netmask>
set allowaccess {http https ping ssh telnet}
end
where:
-
{port1 | port2 | port3 | port4 }is the network interface -
<ip_address>is the interface IP address -
<netmask>is the interface netmask -
{http https ping ssh telnet}specifies the types of administrative access that are permitted
For example:
config system interface
edit port1
set ip 192.168.100.159 255.255.255.0
set allowaccess ping https ssh
end
config system dns
set primary <dns_server_ip>
set secondary <dns_server_ip>
end
where <dns_server_ip> is the IP address of the primary or secondary DNS server.
For example:
config system dns
set primary 65.39.139.52
set secondary 65.39.139.62
end
config system route
edit <seq_num>
set device <port>
set gateway <gateway_ip>
end
where:
-
<seq_num>is an unused routing sequence number (numbering starts at 1) -
<port>is the port for this route -
<gateway_ip>is the default gateway IP address for the network
For example:
config system route
edit 1
set device port1
set gateway 172.30.62.254
end
