Powering up the media server

Accessing the media server
NOTE:
You must place the CD in the drive immediately.
1
Connect the laptop to the services port (port 2 [Eth1]) on the back of the media server using a
crossover cable.
2
Place the CD with Communication Manager in the CD-ROM drive on the media server.
3
Wait at least 3 minutes after powering up before starting a Telnet session to access the information
on the CD.
Clearing the ARP cache on the laptop
NOTE:
Depending on your laptop computer’s operating system (generally Windows 2000), you
may need to clear the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache before entering a new IP
address. If you enter an IP address, and your computer cannot connect, then you may need
to clear the cache.

3
Type a
rp -d 192.11.13.6
and press Enter
to clear the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache in
the laptop. This command will respond with one of the following:
•
The command line prompt when the cache has been cleared.
•
The phrase: The specified entry was not found. This is returned when the specified IP
address does not currently appear in the ARP cache.
Setting up Telnet
NOTE:
Use a telnet session to access the information on the CD.
The Microsoft Telnet application may be set to send a carriage return (CR) and line feed (LF) each time
you press Enter. The installation program sees this as 2 key presses. You need to correct this before you
copy the RP to the hard drive.
