Pinging the TAOS unit from a local host
After you configure the TAOS unit for IP network access, go to an IP host on the local network
and use the Ping command to verify that the unit can communicate on the network. For
example:
host-1% ping 10.2.3.4
In addition, you can verify that the TAOS unit is integrated into your DNS system. For
example:
host-1% ping apx01
Recommended basic security measures
The TAOS unit is shipped from the factory with all its security features set to defaults that
enable you to configure and set up the unit without any restrictions. Before you make the
TAOS unit generally accessible, you must change the default security settings to protect the
configured unit from unauthorized access.
Before bringing the TAOS unit online, Lucent recommends performing the following
important security measures:
•“Changing the Admin password” on page 1-8
•“Securing the serial port” on page 1-8
•“Assigning a Telnet password” on page 1-8
•“Requiring acceptance of the pool address” on page 1-9
•“Ignoring ICMP redirects” on page 1-9
•“Disabling directed broadcasts” on page 1-9
•“Configuring SNMP access to the unit” on page 1-10
For additional security measures, see the APX 8000/MAX TNT/DSLTNT WAN, Routing and
Tunneling Configuration Guide.
