16.2: Ethernet Option Setup


This chapter covers the required steps to get the Ethernet Interface on-line and working. There is only
one method used to log into the Ethernet Server and set up the IP address:

• Network Port Login: make a Telnet connection to the network port (9999).


It is important to consider the following points before logging into and configuring the Ethernet Interface:

• The Ethernet Interface’s IP address must be configured before a network connection is available.

• Only one person at a time may be logged into the network port. This eliminates the possibility of

several people trying to configure the Ethernet Interface simultaneously.
