NETVANTA 1235P ACTIVREACH ETHERNET SWITCH

P/N 1700595G10

GETTING STARTED

Two configuration methods are available for your NetVanta unit:

• Web-based graphical user interface (GUI)

• ADTRAN Operating System (AOS) command line interface (CLI)

The GUI lets you configure the main unit settings and provides online guidance and explanations

for each setting. However, using the AOS CLI may be necessary for more advanced

configurations.

ACCESS THE GUI

You can access the GUI from any web browser on your network by following these steps:

1. Connect the unit to your PC using any of the ports on the front of the unit and an Ethernet

cable.

2. Set your PC to a fixed IP address of 10.10.10.2. To change your PC IP address, navigate to

Computer > Control Panel > Network Connections > Local Area Connection >

Properties > IP (TCP/IP) and select Use this IP Address. Enter these parameters:

IP Address: 10.10.10.2

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 10.10.10.1

You do not need to enter any domain naming system (DNS) server information. After the

information is entered, select Ok twice, and close the Network Connections dialog box. If

you cannot change the PC’s IP address, you will need to change the unit’s IP address using

the CLI. (Refer to the next two sections for instructions.)

3. Open a Web browser and enter the unit’s IP address in your browser address line as follows:

http://10.10.10.1. The default IP address is 10.10.10.1, but if you had to change the unit’s IP

address using the CLI, enter that address in the browser line.

4. You will then be prompted for the user name and password (the default settings are admin

and password).

5. The initial GUI screen appears. You can access initial setup information by selecting Setup

Wizard from the menu on the left.

ACCESS THE CLI

Access the AOS CLI via the CONSOLE port, Telnet, or SSH session. To establish a connection to

the NetVanta unit CONSOLE port, you need the following items:

• PC with VT100 terminal emulation software

• Straight-through serial cable with a DB-9 (male) connector on one end and the appropriate

interface for your terminal or PC communication port on the other end

1. Connect the DB-9 (male) connector of your serial cable to the CONSOLE port located on

either the front or the rear panel depending on the unit.

2. Connect the other end of the serial cable to the terminal or PC.

There are many terminal emulation applications available on the web.

PuTTY, SecureCRT, and HyperTerminal are a few examples.

CONFIGURE YOUR APPLICATION

The applications you will need to configure vary by product and by network. Review the list of

defaults for your unit before deciding what applications to configure. The following are some

common applications that should be configured on startup. These are all available online on

ADTRAN’s Support Community.

3. Provide power to the unit as appropriate. Refer to the NetVanta 1235P Hardware Installation

Guide at https://supportforums.adtran.com for more details.

4. Once the unit is powered up, open a VT100 terminal session using the following settings:

9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity bits, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Press <Enter> to

activate the AOS CLI.

5. Enter enable at the >prompt and enter the Enable mode password when prompted. The

default password is password.

You can also access the CLI from a Telnet or SSH client. In order to do this, you must know the IP

address of the AOS device. If you do not know the unit’s IP address, you must use the CONSOLE

port to access the CLI. To access the CLI using a Telnet or SSH client, follow these steps:

1. Connect the unit to your PC, using an Ethernet cable connected to the GIG 0/1 Gigabit

Ethernet port on the rear of the unit.

2. Open a Telnet or SSH client on your computer and enter 10.10.10.1. If you have changed

your unit's IP address, you will need to enter that address.

3. For SSH, log into the unit using the default login (admin) and password (password). For

Telnet, only the default password (password) is required.

4. Enter login to require a password for Telnet or SSH access.

5. Enter enable at the >prompt and enter the enable password when prompted. The default

password is password.

COMMON CLI COMMANDS

The following are common CLI commands and tips for getting started with the CLI.

• Entering a question mark (?) shows contextual help and options. For example, entering ?at

the prompt will show all commands available from that prompt.

• To view interface statistics, enter show interfaces <interface type> <interface number>.

• To view the current configuration, enter show running-config.

• To view all the IP addresses currently configured, enter show ip interfaces brief.

• To view the AOS version, serial number, and other information, enter show version.

• To save the current configuration, enter write.

ACTIVREACH ETHERNET

The NetVanta 1235P has 24 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports that support both standard and

ActivReach Ethernet. When used in conjunction with the NetVanta ActivReach Media Converter

(P/N 1702595G12) or the NetVanta ActivReach Wall Plate Media Converter (1702595F17),

ActivReach Ethernet is converted to standard 10/100Base-T over 1-, 2-, and 4-pair infrastructure

wiring over a variety of cables at distances beyond 100 meters. The NetVanta ActivReach Wall

Plate Media Converter also supports 1-pair ActivReach with optional voice passthrough

connections via separate front and back RJ-11 jacks.

For applications requiring connection into a single RJ-21, a hydra interconnect cable

(P/N 1702595G14) can be used. This cable is suitable for 10 Mbps applications only. Refer to the

NetVanta 1235P Hardware Installation Guide at https://supportforums.adtran.com or

http://www.adtran.com/activreach-help for more information."

Many PCs do not come with a standard serial port. A universal serial

bus (USB) to serial adapter can be used instead. The drivers for the USB

to serial adapter must be installed according to the manufacturer’s

instructions. If the USB to serial adapter is not properly installed on your

PC, you will not be able to communicate with the AOS unit and you

should seek support from the USB to serial adapter manufacturer.

POWER OVER ETHERNET

The NetVanta 1235P is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch. PoE switches provide the ability to

detect attached powered devices (PDs) and deliver power to the PD via existing Ethernet

cabling. The NetVanta 1235P is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard. By default,

the PoE switches discover and provide power to IEEE-compliant PDs.

ActivReach Ethernet supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) over a single pair. When used in

conjunction with the NetVanta ActivReach Media Converter (P/N 1702595G12), power can be

either terminated at the Media Converter or supplied to a downstream device.

To disable PoE, use the power inline never command in the CLI. To disable PoE from the GUI,

select the Ports page. Then select a single port from the list (e.g., giga-swx 0/1). This will bring

up the port detail page for giga-swx 0/1. On this page, there is a check box to disable PoE.

CONFIGURE THE UNIT’SIP ADDRESS

The following steps create an IP address and subnet mask for the virtual local area network

(VLAN) interface vlan 1. If you are not sure what IP address to assign, please contact your

network administrator.

1. At the # prompt, enter config terminal.

2. At the (config)# prompt, enter interface vlan 1 to access the configuration parameters for

the VLAN interface.

3. Enter ip address 10.26.12.12 255.255.255.0 to assign an IP address to the VLAN interface

using a 24-bit subnet mask.

4. Enter no shutdown to activate the VLAN interface to pass data.

5. Enter exit to return to the Global Configuration mode.

6. Enter ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 to add a default route to the route table.

0.0.0.0 is the default route and the default subnet mask, and 192.168.1.254 is the next-hop

IP address to which the AOS unit should send all of its traffic. You will need to enter the

proper route, subnet mask, and gateway for your network. This information is typically

provided by a service provider or local network administrator.

7. Enter do write memory to save the current configuration.

ENABLE TELNET USER LOGIN ACCESS

The following steps enable user login parameters for Telnet access by changing the password

from the default (password) and enabling security login on Telnet lines.

1. Verify that the prompt of your unit displays (config)#.

2. Enter line telnet 0 4 to change the configuration parameters for the Telnet sessions.

3. Enter login to prompt users with a login prompt for Telnet access.

4. Enter password adtran to change the login password for the Telnet sessions.

5. Enter exit to return to the Global Configuration mode.

6. Verify that the prompt of your unit displays (config)#.

7. Enter do write memory to save the current configuration.

The configuration parameters used in the examples outlined in this

document are for instructional purposes only. Please replace all

underlined entries (example) with your specific parameters to configure

your application.
