Connecting to
the Default IP
Address
To connect to the default IP address with your PC, set up an active route from your
PC. To do this with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 or Windows XP, use the following
procedure. You can use the routes for connecting Ethernet components with other
address ranges.
Step Action
1 Be sure the NOE module is running.
2 Obtain the default IP address of the NOE derived from its MAC address (for
example, 84.0.0.2).
3 Open an MS-DOS window.
4 Add an active route for the local NOE by typing:
C:\>ROUTE ADD <target> MASK <mask> <gateway>
e.g.
C:\>ROUTE ADD 84.0.0.0 MASK 255.0.0.0 205.217.193.205
Use the default IP address of the NOE module as target address. Use a class A
subnet mask for connecting to every 84.0.0.0 address. The gateway address is the
IP of your PC. The result is that MS Windows will now talk to any address that starts
with an 84 that is directly connected to a hub or switch directly accessible to your
machine, or that can be seen by the specified route/gateway.
5 Confirm that there is a new entry in the active route table by typing:
C:\>route print:
The following figure confirms that the new entry was added to the active route table.
6 Verify that a connection is made by typing:
C:\>ping 84.0.0.2
The following figure shows that the connection is verified.
