Pinging to determine Extron IP address

The Microsoft® Ping utility is available at the DOS prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet interface between the computer and the CrossPoint or MAV switcher. Ping can also be used to determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the web address.

Ping the switcher as follows:

1.	On the Windows task bar, click on Start > Run.
2.	At the Open prompt, type command.
3.	Click the OK button.
4.	At the DOS prompt, type ping {IP address} and then press [Enter]. The
	computer returns a display similar to figure A-2.

The line Pinging ... reports the actual numeric IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.

C:\>ping 192.168.254.254

Pinging 192.168.254.254 with 32 bytes of data:

Ping statistics for 192.168.254.254:

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Pinging to determine Web IP address

The Ping utility has a modifier, -a, that directs the command to return the Web address rather than the numeric IP address.

At the DOS prompt, type ping -a{IP address} and then press [Enter]. The computer’s return display is similar to the Ping response shown in figure A-2,except that when you specify the -amodifier, the line Pinging mail... reports the web IP address rather than the numeric IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.

The Microsoft Telnet utility is available from the DOS prompt. Telnet allows you to input SIS commands to the CrossPoint or MAV switcher from the PC via the Ethernet link and the LAN.

Access the DOS prompt and start Telnet as follows:

1.	On the Windows task bar, click on Start > Run.
2.	At the Open prompt, type command.
3.	Click the OK button.
4.	At the DOS prompt, type telnet and then press [Enter]. The computer returns
	a display similar to figure A-3.
