Setting an Initial IP Address
Using ARP-Ping
You can use the ARP-Ping (Address Resolution Protocol) method to temporarily assign an IP
address and connect to your Terminal Server to assign a permanent IP address. To use
ARP-Ping to temporarily assign an IP address:
1.
From a local UNIX/Linux host, type the following:
arp -s a.b.c.d aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
On a Windows
®
98 or newer system, type the following:
arp -s a.b.c.d aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff
(where
a.b.c.d
is the IPv4 address you want to temporarily assign to the Terminal Server,
and
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
is the Ethernet (MAC) address of Terminal Server, found on the
back of the unit.
2.
Whether you use UNIX or Windows
®
, you are now ready to ping to the Terminal Server.
Here is a UNIX example of the sequence to use:
arp -s 192.168.209.8 00:80:d4:00:33:4e
ping 192.168.209.8
You are now ready to configure the Terminal Server. See
Chapter 3,
Configuration Methods
on
page 37
for information on the different Terminal Server configuration methods.
IPv6 Network
The Terminal Server has a factory default link local IPv6 address that takes the following format:
Terminal Server MAC Address: 00-80-D4-AB-CD-EF
Link Local Address: fe80::0280:D4ff:feAB:CDEF
The Terminal Server will also listen for IPv6 router advertisements to learn a global address. You
do not need to configure an IPv4 address for a Terminal Server residing in an IPv6 network.
You are now ready to configure the Terminal Server. See
Chapter 3,
Configuration Methods
on
page 37
for information on the different Terminal Server configuration methods.
