GETTING STARTED

To access your NetVanta 1500 Series device with firmware versions earlier then the supported

Extended Maintenance Release (EMR), currently R13.5.3, you have two options:

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

■ Web-based graphical user interface (GUI)

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

for each setting. However, you may need to use the AOS CLI for more advanced configurations.

g NOTE

It is recommended to upgrade all ADTRAN switches to the current firmware release (currently

R13.5.3). This is especially true of the 1550 series switches since they can become completely

un-responsive with BVS1.0 firmware. This firmware is available on our Website at

www.adtran.com under Support > Product Downloads > Software Releases.

Upgrades can be done during working hours and the required reboot will not happen until the

administrator requests the reboot with the CLI command or Web interface. The Web interface

firmware upgrade is usually the easiest method. Firmware can be loaded and waiting until the

maintenance window occurs and allows reboot.

For detailed instructions, refer to the Upgrading Firmware in AOS configuration guide, available

online at https://supportcommunity.adtran.com.

ACCESS THE CLI

Access the AOS CLI via the CONSOLE port or a 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

■ Micro USB 2.0 5-pin type B cable or DB-9 to RJ-45 serial cable (rollover cable)

g NOTE

There are many terminal emulation applications available on the Web. PuTTy, SecureCRT, and

HyperTerminal are a few examples.

1. From the CONSOLE interface, you can set the IP address of the switch which will allow you

Web access later. The default credentials are:

Username: admin

Password: password

2. Using a PC to connect to an Ethernet port on the switch, you can access the switch CLI

with telnet or SSH, if the IP address of the switch has been configured and there is a

username and password set. The IP address of the switch is set to DHCP (by default,) so it

would be assigned by a DHCP server on a network connected to the switch or the switch

default IP address will not be reachable. The default credentials are:

Username: admin

Password: password

3. Enter ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 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 will 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

an Internet service provider (ISP) or local network administrator.

7. Enter do write to save the current configuration.

CHANGE LOGIN PASSWORDS

1. To modify a current user account or create a new account, from the (config)# prompt, enter

the command username <username> password <password>.

2. To modify the Enable mode password, from the (config)# prompt, enter the command

enable password <password>.

3. To modify the Telnet password, from the (config)# prompt, enter the command line telnet

0 4 and then press <Enter>. Enter the command password <password>.

4. Enter do write to save the current configuration.

ACCESS THE GUI

If you connect the switch to a network with a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server, you

can connect to the Web interface using either 10.10.10.1 or the DHCP-assigned IP address. The

DHCP server assigned IP address will bring up the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) interface

and then the secondary IP address (10.10.10.1) will also be responsive.

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. At the end of this document

is a list of configuration guides that relate to common applications that should be configured on

startup. These guides are all available online on ADTRAN’s Support Community.

g NOTE

Important: For additional details on product features, specifications, installation, and safety, refer

to the NetVanta 1550 Series Hardware Installation Guide at https://supportcom-

munity.adtran.com.

Once connected to the switch CLI, the IP address can be set as shown by the example

below.

Example Configuration

>enable

#configure terminal

(config)#interface vlan 1

(config-intf-vlan 1)#ip address 10.19.221.50 /24

(config-intf-vlan 1)#no shutdown

(config-intf-vlan 1)#exit

(config)#exit

#write

Building configuration...

Done. Success!

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 interface <interface type> <interface number>.

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

■ To view all the IP Addresses currently configured, enter show ip interface brief.

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

■ To save the current configuration, enter write.

POWER OVER ETHERNET

The NetVanta 1550-24P (P/N 17101524PF1) and the NetVanta 1550-48P (P/N 17101548PF1)

are Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches. PoE switches provide the ability to detect attached

powered devices (PDs) and deliver 48 VDC to the PD via existing Ethernet cabling. The

NetVanta 1550 PoE Series are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at PoE+

standards. By default, the PoE switches discover and provide power to IEEE-compliant PDs.

To disable PoE, use the power inline never command in the CLI. To disable power detection and

supply from the GUI, select the Ports page. Then select a 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 power detection.

The following steps create an IP address and subnet mask for the 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.
