2.2 Setting an IP Address with Install Script
1. Use “TAR” to get the files from the CD-ROM.
2. Run the unpack.sh command. This launches install.sh , which
assigns an address from “Installation Options.”
3. Choose “Configure a New FastPort.”
Install.sh asks for the IP addresses, edits applicable files and assigns an
IP address. Refer to: /examples/install.doc for a sample session.
2.3 Setting the IP Address using Telnet on UNIX
Note: Telnet only works if a device is on the same subnet as the host.
1. To set an IP address using telnet, use a text editor to open the /etc/
hosts file and add the following line:
192.115.2.1 alpha (Save this file)

arp -s ether alpha 0:40:C8:0:1:2B (no leading zeros: RS-6000)
b. arp -s alpha 0:40:C8:0:1:2B (no leading zeros: most UNIX systems)
arpbypass set alpha 0X00.0X40.0XC8.0X00.0X01.0X02 (AT&T and NCR)
Note: The assigned IP address must be on the same local subnet as UNIX.
