Network Management Card: Quick Configuration
52 NetworkAIR IR Operation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting
Remote access to the control console
From any computer on the same subnet as the Network Management Card, you can use ARP and
Ping to assign an IP address to a Network Management Card, and then use Telnet to access that
Card’s control console and configure the needed TCP/IP settings.
1. Use ARP to define an IP address for the Network Management Card, and use the Network
Management Card’s MAC address in the ARP command. For example, to define an IP address
of 156.205.14.141 for a Network Management Card that has a MAC address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f
67, use one of the following commands:
Windows command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67
LINUX command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the ARP command. For
the IP address defined in step 1, use one of the following Ping commands:
Windows command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113
LINUX command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113
3. Use Telnet to access the NetworkAIR IR System at its newly assigned IP address. For example:
telnet 156.205.14.141
4. Use apc for both user name and password.
5. See “Control console” on page 52 to finish the configuration.
Control console
After you log on at the control console, as described in “Local access to the control console” on
page 51 or “Remote access to the control console” on page 52:
1. Choose Network from the Control Console menu.
2. Choose
TCP/IP from the Network menu.
3. If you are not using a
BOOTP or DHCP server to configure the
Note
After a Network Management Card has its IP address configured, you can use Telnet,
without first using ARP and Ping, to access that Network Management Card.
Note
For the MAC address, look on the nameplate of the NetworkAIR IR In-row
Precision Air Conditioner.
