Quick Start Guide — IPL M PDP-ES, cont’d

After issuing this command, the unit will change to the new address and start responding to the ping requests. The interface card’s IP address should now be updated to the new address, and then you can reconnect using either Telnet or the Web to verify that the update was successful.

5.After verifying that the change was successful, issue the arp –d command at the DOS prompt. For example:

arp –d 10.13.170.15 will remove 10.13.170.15 from the arp table

arp –dwill remove all static IP addresses from the arp table.

Communication With the Interface Card

The on-board Web server has a set of built in, default Web pages which can be accessed via a Web browser. If using Internet Explorer, you must also have Microsoft Script (version 5.6 or higher).

Accessing and using the Web server

Access the IPL M PDP-ES interface card through the built in Web server pages as follows:

1.Launch your Web browser.

2.Click in the browser’s Address field.

3.Enter your IPL M PDP-ES IP address in the browser’s Address field. The browser’s Address field should display the address in the following format: http://xx.xx.xxx.xx. For example:

http://10.13.170.15

If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory-specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.

4.Press the keyboard Enter key.

5.The IPL M PDP-ES card’s System Status page should appear.
