W406-CE User’s Manual
Getting Started
Changing the Network Settings
The W406 computer has one network interface. There is no default IP address; the default network
setting is configured as DHCP. If you have a DHCP server, simply connect the W406 to your
network using an Ethernet cable. An IP address will automatically be appointed to the W406. If
you would like to use a fixed IP address, you should use
netconfig
command.
The
netconfig
command is a utility that is used to complete the task. Before changing the IP
addresses, type
netconfig -h
to list the help for this command.
\> netconfig -h
Usage: netconfig -n <AdapterName | Alias> [-EnableDHCP] [-i <IP address>] [-m < etmask>]
[-g <gateway>] [-d <DNS server>] [-w <WINS Server>] [-noask] e.g.: netconfig -n
IXP425ETHNPE1 -i 192.168.10.101 -g 192.168.10.254: netconfig -n CS89501 -i
192.168.12.101
-m
255.255.0.0
Alias: LAN1=CS89501
For example, if your development workstation has a LAN port at 192.168.1.1, and the IP address
of the Domain Name Server (DNS) is 192.168.2.6, execute the following command.
\> netconfig –n LAN1 –i 192.168.1.5 –m 255.255.255.0 –g 192.168.1.254 –d 192.168.2.6
Use the
netconfig
command to view the updated settings.
