ARP/Ping
The product’s IP address can be assigned using ARP and Ping. For instructions, see
Assign IP Address Using ARP/Ping on page 43
.
The ARP/Ping service is enabled by default but is automatically disabled two minutes after the product is started, or as soon as an IP
address is assigned. To re-assign IP address using ARP/Ping, the product must be restarted to enable ARP/Ping for an additional
two minutes.
To disable the service, go to
System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic
and clear the option
Enable ARP/Ping setting of IP address
.
Pinging the product is still possible when the service is disabled.
