Network Recovery
In rare cases a MiniPlex-2E might not show up in the search
results window due to a possible misconfiguration in the Network
Settings. This might happen when duplicate IP addresses exist on
the network or the multiplexer has an illegal IP address. To
recover from such a situation, a new IP address can be assigned
with menu option “Tools
MiniPlex-2E
Assign
IP”.
In the “Assign
IP
Address” dialog (Figure 19), enter the MAC
address of the multiplexer. This MAC address can be found on the
label on the topside of the multiplexer, below the serial number.
Enter the MAC address with the fields separated by dashes as
shown. Then enter a valid IP address and click on OK. A progress
bar will appear during the update process, which will take approximately 10 seconds. After that, the
multiplexer can be reached again through the normal “Network
Settings”
dialog.
