Setting the IP Address
If you press Ctrl-C , you may see something like this:
192:168:192:168 PING Statistics
3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received,
100% packet loss
Again, the exact wording of the message you see may differ
from this, depending on your operating system. If you cannot
“ping” the interface card, check the following:
❏
The address in the ping command is correct.
❏
The Ethernet connection to the interface card and to the
host has been made correctly, and all hubs, routers, etc.
are switched on.
❏
The interface card is operating normally (red light off,
green or orange light on).
Setting and checking the new IP address
To set the new IP address which you have obtained from your
system administrator, use the arp command with the -s flag
(create an ARP entry).
Note:
In the following procedure, we assume that the MAC address of your
interface card is 00:00:48:93:00:00 (hexadecimal), and that the IP
address which you will be assigning is 192.168.100.201 (decimal).
Substitute your values for these addresses when you type in the
commands.
1. From the command line, type:
Example: arp -s 192.168.100.201 00-00-48-93-00-00
2. You can now check the new IP address, by “pinging” it:
Example: ping 192.168.100.201
