address and the hardware address of the TCP2RS, which is found on the product
label.

ARP on UNIX
arp -s 191.12.3.77 00:20:4a:xx:xx:xx
In order for the ARP command to work on
Windows
, the ARP table on the PC must
have at least one IP address defined other than its own. If the ARP table is empty, the
command will return an error message. Type
ARP -A
at the DOS command prompt to
verify that there is at least one entry in the ARP table.
If the local machine is the only entry, ping another IP address on your network to build a
new entry in the ARP table; the IP address must be a host other than the machine on
which you are working. Once there is at least one additional entry in the ARP table, use
the following command to ARP an IP address to the TCP2RS:

Now open a Telnet connection to port 1. The connection will fail quickly, but the
TCP2RS will temporarily change its IP address to the one designated in this step.

Finally, open a Telnet connection to port 9999 and set all required parameters.

Telnet to Port 9999
telnet 191.12.3.77 9999
Note:
This IP address is temporary and will revert to the default value
when the
TCP2RS
’s power is reset, unless you log into the
TCP2RS
and store the changes permanently. Refer to Chapter 4 for
instructions on permanently configuring the IP address.
3.2.3 Serial Port Login

Connect a console terminal or PC running a terminal emulation program to the
TCP2RS’s serial port. The default serial port settings are 9600 baud, 8 bits, no
parity, 1 stop bit.
