ARPPing IP Address Assignment

If it is not convenient to change the PC/workstation network address, you can use the ARP-Ping command to reset the ECS0016 IP address. To do this from a Windows PC:

1.Click Start > Run

2.Type cmd in the text box provided and click OK to open the command line

3.Type arp –dto flush the ARP cache:

4.Type arp –ato view the current ARP cache which should now be empty.

Now, add a static entry to the ARP table and ping the ECS0016 to prompt it to assume the IP address.

The following example illustrates an ECS0016 with a MAC Address 00:13:C6:00:02:0F (designated on the label on the bottom of the unit), and we are setting its IP address to 192.168.100.23. Also, the PC/work station issuing the arp command must be on the same network segment as the ECS0016 (i.e. have an IP address of 192.168.100.xxx).

5.Type arp -s 192.168.100.23 00-13-C6-00-02-0F (Note for UNIX the syntax is: arp -s 192.168.100.23 00:13:C6:00:02:0F)

6.Type ping -t 192.18.100.23 to start a continuous ping to the new IP Address.

7.Turn on the ECS0016 and wait for it to configure itself with the new IP Address. It will start replying to the ping at this point.

8.Type arp –dto flush the ARP cache again.

9.Activate your preferred browser on the connected PC/ workstation and enter https://192.168.0.1 in the URL field.
