If the BOOTP process is successful, the SYS LED flashes five times per second
until the MIL-4511H resolves its IP address. It flashes once per second after
address resolution.

Note:

The IP address in this case is stored in RAM. When the MIL-4511H is powered off, the
address will be lost and when the unit is powered on, the MIL-4511H will RARP again.

To see if the 4511H is up and responding on the network, use the ping command:

ping <hostname>

It should respond with a message that the host is alive. For example, if the MIL-
4511H alpha is responding on the network, the response from ping will be:

alpha is alive

If there is a problem resolving the MIL-4511H name, try using ping with the IP
address for the MIL-4511H:

ping <ip-address>
