C.4.2 How to Set Up your Computer’s IP Address for Direct Connect
When your computer is connected directly to the RCM3400 Prototyping Board via an
Ethernet connection, you need to assign an IP address to your computer. To assign the PC
the address 10.10.6.101 with the netmask 255.255.255.0, do the following.
Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel to bring up the Control Panel, and then
double-click the Network icon. Depending on which version of Windows you are using,
look for the TCP/IP Protocol/Network > Dial-Up Connections/Network line or tab.
Double-click on this line or select Properties or Local Area Connection > Properties
to bring up the TCP/IP properties dialog box. You can edit the IP address and the subnet
mask directly. (Disable “obtain an IP address automatically”.) You may want to write
down the existing values in case you have to restore them later. It is not necessary to edit
the gateway address since the gateway is not used with direct connect.
