APC UPS Network Management Card 2 AP9630 - Manual (Page 16)

12 Installation Manual
Remote access to the command line interface
From any computer on the same network as the Network Management Card,
you can use ARP and Ping to assign an IP address to the Network Management
Card, and then use Telnet to access its command line interface and configure
the other TCP/IP settings.
Note: After the Network Management Card has its IP address
configured, you can use Telnet, without first using ARP and Ping, to
access that Network Management Card.
1. Use the MAC address of the Network Management Card in the ARP
command to define the IP address.
Note: Look for the MAC address on the bottom of the
Network Management Card or on the Quality Assurance
slip included in the package.
For example, to define 156.205.14.141 as the IP address of a Network
Management Card with 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67 as its MAC address, use one
of the following commands:
– Windows command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67
– LINUX command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the
ARP command. For the IP address defined in step 1, use one of the
following commands:
– Windows command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113
– LINUX command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113
3. Use Telnet to access the Network Management Card at its newly
assigned IP address. For example:
telnet 156.205.14.141
4. Use apc for both user name and password.
See “Command line interface” on page 13 to finish the
configuration.
