Setup, Ping | IBM M110 instruction

3.2 Setup

There are a number of configuration parameters that can be setup for your terminal. If you are only using it as a serial asynchronous devices, proceed to the next chapter.

If you will use the SpotLine M110 as a LAN terminal, you must first set the IP address for the terminal (see 4.1.4). As is normal for

LAN devices, all those on the same LAN segment must have the same 3 first digits, and a unique last digit.

To confirm that the IP address is set correctly, and that the LAN is communicating properly with your terminal, please issue the “ping” command from your host to the chosen IP address, and ensure that there is no packet loss.

For example, if you have set the terminal to IP address

194.2.32.52

then on the host system, enter:

ping 194.2.32.52

Or, if you have already given it a name in your host table, like spot110, then you can enter:

ping spot110
