where:
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
is the IP address for the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter
nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn is the MAC address for the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter
Example:
arp -s 192.168.3.191 00-40-8c-10-00-86
ping 192.168.3.191
arp -d 192.168.3.191

Type the following command:
arp -s host_name nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn temp
ping host_name
where:
host_name is the name mapped to the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter’s IP address.
The default name is
INTERMEC_ nnnnnn
where nnnnnn is the
last six digits of the MAC address.
nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn is the MAC address for the adapter.
Example:
arp -s INTERMEC_0B766F 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp
ping INTERMEC_0B766F
The host will return

or a similar message. This
message indicates that the address has been set and communications established.
When you execute the PING command for the first time, you may experience a longer
response time than is usual.
The ARP command can vary between different UNIX systems. Berkeley System
Distribution (BSD) type systems expect the host name and node address in reverse
order. Furthermore, IBM AIX

systems require the additional argument ether. For
example:
arp -s ether host_name 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp
