4.1.2 ARP HTTPget Commands (Method 2) (continued)
The above IP address of 128.100.101.76 is an example to show how these
commands work. To get a valid IP address on your network you need to consult
with your IT department.
Figure 4.1
shows the screen shot of an actual DOS window with the above commands
executed.

4.1.3 Direct Connection (Method 3)
The iServer is shipped with a default IP address of
192.168.1.200
and Subnet Mask of
255.255.255.0
.
To start, connect your iServer directly to your PC using a straight or cross-over Ethernet
cable and power it on.
Make sure that the Network LINK/ACT LED on the iServer and your Ethernet switch is
solid ON. Refer to
Figure 4.2
.
If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet program to access the iServer using its
default IP address of 192.168.1.200, you need to make sure that the PC from which
you’re establishing the connection has an IP address that is in the same range as the
iServer’s IP address.
For example, you can assign your PC an IP address of
192.168.1.x
, where
x
is any
number from
1
to
254
.
Your PC’s IP address cannot be the same as the iServer’s IP address.
You also need to make sure that your PC’s subnet mask is
255.255.255.0
.
This is a good way to access the iServer over the network and make any configuration
changes needed.
Changing your PC’s IP address is
temporary
and it’s only for the purpose of accessing
the iServer for initial configurations like assigning a new IP address, subnet mask, etc.
Once the iServer is configured you can
put your PC back to its original IP settings
.
If 192.168.1.200 is already in use on your network, connect the iServer directly to your
computer using a CAT5 Ethernet cable (either straight or cross-over cable will be detected
by the iServer) and proceed as described below.
C:\>arp -s 128.100.101.76 00-03-34-00-b8-70
C:\>httpget -r -S “00000000” 128.100.101.76:1
New IP is assigned. The unit will reset in 10 seconds.
