To configure LAN parameters using "ipconfig700"
If you are using an HP 9000 Series 300/400/700 computer or Sun
SPARCsystem computer and you have installed the HP B1471 64700
Operating Environment software, you can configure the HP processor probe’s
LAN parameters with the ipconfig700 command.
The ipconfig700 command sets the IP address and gateway address for the
HP processor probe. An IP address must be configured before a network
interface connection can be made.
The ipconfig700 command cannot be used if your workstation is running a
bootp daemon. If this is the case, use BOOTP to configure LAN parameters.
To determine if BOOTP is enabled on your computer, see "To configure LAN
parameters using BOOTP" in this chapter.
The following steps need to be taken when configuring the network
parameters with ipconfig700.
1
Connect the the HP processor probe to your network. This
connection can be made by using either the 10BASE-T connector or
the 10BASE2 BNC connector on the HP processor probe.
2
Set the configuration switches to indicate the type of connection that
is to be made.
Switch S1 must be set to OPEN, indicating that a LAN connection is being
made. Switch S6 must bet set to OPEN, to allow programming of the LAN
parameters.
Switch S5 should be 1 if you are connecting to the BNC connector:
Switch S5 should be 0 if you are connecting to the 10BASE-T connector:
Set all other switches to CLOSED.
3
Turn ON power to the HP processor probe.
