K3 1RU AB Switch Page 7 Setting the IP address using ARP
To set the IP address using ARP, connect the jack marked 10Base-T to your local Ethernet network and
apply power to the unit. The computer used to set the IP address must be on the same physical network
as the C-AB-16-R . ARP does not work across switched or routed networks.
Windows (98 and Later)
1. Open a DOS window.
2. Type the following command:
arp -s <IP Address> <MAC Address>
Where <IP Address> is the desired IP address (in dotted decimal) for the C-AB-16-R and the <MAC
address> is the MAC Address of the C-AB-16-R . The MAC Address is located on a label on the rear
panel of the card.
Example: arp -s 63.211.86.165 00-50-c2-05-01-c1 <enter>
|--- new IP addr. ---| |------- MAC addr. ------|
3. Ping the C-AB-16-R to program the IP address into the C-AB-16-R .
Type: ping <IP Address>
If the ping command returns “host not responding” 4 times then the address has not been
programmed properly, or the IP or MAC Address is incorrect. In either case redo step 2. If the
problem persists, contact the Dataprobe Tech Support Hot Line.
4. Delete the entry from the ARP cache by typing:
arp -d <IP Address>
5. Ping the C-AB-16-R to confirm that it has been programmed.
If the card fails to respond, repeat steps 2-4 above. If the problem persists contact the Dataprobe support hotline. Unix, Linux
Consult your systems administrator for information on setting an IP Address using ARP. The unit should
be pinged after the IP Address has been set to confirm proper operation.
Setting IP Address with Telnet
For initial setup, the computer used must use the same network segment as the default IP Address, or
current IP address. (192.168.1.xxx) If this is not the case, use one of the other methods. To connect to
the C-AB-16-R using telnet, run your telnet client program (provided with your operating system) and
connect to the IP address as set in step one above.
For Windows: Select Run…Telnet
Connect…192.168.1.254 (or the current IP address)
As soon as you connect the following message will be displayed:
