4.Ping the Digi device using the IP address just assigned. The following is an example:

ping 143.191.2.1

The ping will probably time out before there is a response from the Digi device.

5. Wait a few seconds and then ping the Digi device again.

The Digi device replies to the ping, indicating that the IP address has been configured.

Configuring the Ethernet Interface from the Command Line

This section discusses how to use the command line to configure an IP address, mask, and default gateway for the device server’s Ethernet interface.

Manual Configuration Procedure

1.To ensure that the IP address you configure is permanent, turn DHCP off by entering the following command:

set config dhcp=off

2.To configure an IP address for the Ethernet interface, enter the following command:

set config ip=ip-address

where ip-addressis the IP address for the Ethernet interface

Example to Set IP Address

set config ip=191.143.2.154

3. To configure a subnet mask, enter the following command:

set config submask=mask

where mask is the subnet mask for this subnetwork

Example to Set Subnet Mask

set config submask=255.255.255.0

4. To configure a default gateway, enter the following command:

set config gateway=ip-address

where ip-addressis the IP address of the default gateway

Example to Set Gateway Mask

set config gateway=191.143.2.46

5. Reboot the Digi device at the prompt using the following command:

boot action=reset

Manual Configuration Example

In this example set config commands configure the Ethernet interface and the boot command reboot the Digi device, which is required for the address change to take affect.

set config ip=192.150.150.10 submask=255.255.255.0 dhcp=off

set config gateway=192.150.150.11
