c) Get a static IP address, subnetmask, and default gateway address from
your TCP/IP system administrator.
Important:
It is critical that you select an IP addressing
scheme that is compatible with your local TCP/IP network.
Check with your system administrator; do not use an IP
address until you have confirmation that it will not
adversely affect your local network.
The example addresses provided below are probably
incorrect for your local network. We provide them so that
you may understand the syntax of each command only.
Issue the following console commands at the command prompt to set the IP
properties of the
i
.
LON 1000
.
The syntax for console commands is:
command
argument
See your network administrator if you need help deciding on proper values
for the fields listed above. The hostname property can be a single name
without domain information, such as
ilon1
. It does not need to be a fully
qualified host name like
ilon1.echelon.com
.
