Configure Your Network Interface (continued)
A DOS like terminal will open. Type in ‘ipconfig’, press [Enter] on the keyboard and the computer will return
the present Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway for all of your network interfaces. If your present
address is 192.168.0.xxx, where ‘xxx’ does not equal 50, and your subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, then you
are ready to configure your RBE2-8 board. Figure R3.1 shows the output of an ipconfig command that shows
the “Local Area Connection 2” interface on the 192.168.0.xxx subnet.
Figure R3.1 ipconfig Command
If your present address is not in the 192.168.0.xxx range, type in ‘ncpa.cpl’ at the command prompt and hit
[Enter] on the keyboard.
For Windows 7 through 10, this open the
Network Connections
window. Double click on the appropri-
ate interface. In the window that opens, select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP v4)” from the list
and then click on the [Properties] button.
Set the address and subnet mask to appropriate values. (192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0 will work for an
RBE2-8 that has factory default settings.) The default gateway and DNS server settings can be ignored.
Test Your Network Interface
Going back to the terminal you opened in the last step, type in ‘ping aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ where
‘aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ in the IP address of the RBE2-8. The computer will ping the unit and the message “Reply
from aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128” should appear four times.
If the message “Request timed out.” or “Destination host unreachable” appears, then one of four things has
occurred:
You set a new IP address, but have not yet cycled power to the RBE2-8
You did not enter the correct address in the ping command.
The IP address of the RBE2-8 is not set correctly.
The RBE2-8 and the computer are not on the same subnet.
