Using the NI Ethernet Device Configuration Utility

If your network administrator tells you to assign the IP address manually,
run the NI Ethernet Device Configuration utility. To run the utility,
complete the following steps:

1.

Open the Ethernet/100 folder in the NI-488.2 folder.

2.

Double-click the EthernetConfig icon.

3.

The NI Ethernet Device Configuration utility displays a list of
National Instruments Ethernet devices found on your subnet, sorted by
model. You can identify your device by the Ethernet address or the
serial number found on the GPIB-ENET/100 baseplate label.
Figure 3-1 shows an example of this display.

The listed devices can be in one of four possible states, as indicated in
the IP address/hostname column:

A hostname indicates the device has successfully been configured
by DHCP.

A numerical IP address indicates the device has successfully been
configured with a static IP address.
