5. Execute a ping command by entering “ping” followed by a space and the new
IP address at the command prompt. For example:
ping 10.13.170.15
The response should show the switcher’s new IP address, as shown below.
You can reconnect using either Telnet or a Web browser to verify that the
update was successful.
6. After verifying that the IP address change was successful, enter and issue the
arp –d command at the DOS prompt. For example:
arp –d 10.13.170.15 removes 10.13.170.15 from the ARP table
or
arp –d* removes all static IP addresses from the ARP table.
7. After configuring the switcher, remember to change your PC’s TCP/IP
settings back to their original configuration.
Configuring the switcher via a Web browser
The default Web pages that are preloaded on the System 5 IP are compatible with
popular Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator (version 6.0 or higher), Internet
Explorer (version 5.5 or higher), or Mozilla Firefox (version 1.0 or higher).
1. Obtain a valid IP address for the switcher from your network administrator.
2. Launch Internet Explorer on the connected PC (for which you set up the
network configuration earlier), and enter “http://192.168.254.254/” in the
address box. The System 5 IP’s default Web page is displayed.
4. Select the Configuration tab, then select System Settings from the list/menu
on the left of the screen. A Web page appears. The top half of a typical screen
is shown below.
5. Enter the new IP address for the switcher, the corresponding subnet mask,
and gateway address, then click on the Submit button. IP addresses, subnet
mask, and e-mail addresses follow standard naming and numbering
