Determining the Network Settings
If you are not sure what the network information is on a DeviceMaster UP, you
can perform the following procedure.
1.
Establish communications with the DeviceMaster UP using the serial (Page
39) or telnet (Page 40) method.
2.
At the
RedBoot
prompt, type
ip
.
The IP address, subnet mask, and IP gateway values will display.
Configuring the Network Settings
The following subsections show you how to establish a communications link with
Redboot on the DeviceMaster UP, by using one of these methods:
•
Serial connection
between Port 1 on the DeviceMaster UP and a COM port on
a PC.
If you do not know the IP address of the DeviceMaster UP you must use a
serial connection to communicate with the DeviceMaster UP.
•
Telnet connection
requires that you know the IP address. In addition, the IP
address must also be valid for the network to which it is attached. For
example: The network segment must be 192.168.250.x to telnet to the
DeviceMaster UP default IP.
Use the following procedure to program the IP address using Redboot.
1.
Establish communications with the DeviceMaster UP using the serial (Page
39) or telnet (Page 40) method.
2.
Enter
ip [
addr mask gateway
]
and press the
Enter
key to configure the IP
address.
Where
:
addr =
IP address you want to use
mask
= matches you network subnet mask
gateway
= assigned by your network administrator
Make sure that each value is separated by a space
.
3.
Verify that Redboot responds with your configured network information or
reissue the command.
