manual IP configuration.
Assign the IP Address
To set an IP address, you will need to access a command line in a DOS
compatible computer connected to the same network as the ATAboy2.
1. You will first need to add an entry to the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)
table of this computer. The entry should be the desires IP address of the unit
followed by the MAC address (serial number). Type the following into the
DOS window:
arp -s [IP address] [MAC address/serial number]
2. Then type:
arp /a
This will show the current ARP table. Make sure that the ATAboy2 has been
added.
3. Ping the IP address you have specified. If the IP was configured properly,
you should get a reply.
Configuration through the Web Interface
After the IP address has been configured, access the ATAboy2’s login page by
typing the IP address into the internet browser. Click [LOGIN] to continue. By
default, this will not require a user name or password.
Notice that in the upper right hand corner of the page, there is a status indicator.
For a key to the icons, click [INFO. MENU] and then click [KEY].
