Using ARP to Assign the IP Address.
You can assign a new IP address to the ServSensor JR through the use
of ARP. The ARP method may be preferable if you do not have access
to a Microsoft host or if you prefer to use another host such as Linux to
assign the IP address. You can use this method to assign the initial IP
address or if you have forgotten the IP address that was assigned to the
ServSensor JR.
To assign a static IP address to the ServSensor JR, use ARP. Enter the
following from the command prompt:
arp -s <ipaddress> <EthernetMACAddress>
where <EthernetMACAddress> is the Ethernet MAC address located
on the sticker on the ServSensor JR and <ipaddress> is the IP address
you wish to assign.
For example:
arp -s 192.189.207.2 00-40-17-03-b2-04
To check that you have entered this command correctly, enter:
arp -a
Now ping the ServSensor JR from the DOS prompt. For Example:
ping 192.189.207.2
It is the ping that actually sets the new IP address.
Testing the new IP Address
You have now assigned your ServSensor JR a new IP address. You can
check that this is the case by using ping or by using a web browser.
Whenever a new IP address is assigned to a ServSensor JR that new IP
address is saved in EEPROM. This means that the ServSensor JR will
retain its new IP address even after power is recycled. You can test that
is the case by cycling power to the ServSensor JR.
