Remote access to the control console

From any computer on the same subnet as the Automatic Transfer Switch, you can use ARP and Ping to assign an IP address to a Automatic Transfer Switch, and then use Telnet to access that Automatic Transfer Switch’s control console and configure the needed TCP/IP settings.

After the Automatic Transfer Switch has its IP address configured, you can use Telnet, without first using ARP and Ping, to access that Automatic Transfer Switch.

Note

Use ARP to define an IP address for the Automatic Transfer Switch, and use the Automatic Transfer Switch’s MAC address in the ARP command. For example, to define an IP address of 156.205.14.141 for a Automatic Transfer Switch that has a MAC address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67, use one of the following commands:

–Windows command format:

arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67

–LINUX command format:

arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
