22. Appendix F: Frequently asked questions
Question 1
The IP-address and netmask are missing in Arctic’s GUI (they cannot be read) and I cannot set
them.
Answer
You have probably set them in arctic> command line with command setenv ipaddr=<IP
address>, setenv netmask=<netmask> and saveenv.
The problem is that those parameters should be given with space as a separator for parameter and
value. Using equal sign (=) as a separator will cause an error in parsing the value.
Correct with going to the arctic> command line in serial console connection by hitting any key
