6 Quick Start: Network Management Card – DC Series
Quick Configuration
Remote access
to the control
console
From any computer on the same subnet as the Management
Card, you can use ARP and Ping to assign an IP address to a
Management Card. Then use Telnet to access that Management
Card’s control console and configure the TCP/IP settings.
After a Management Card has its IP address configured, you
can use Telnet, without first using ARP and Ping, to access that
Management Card.
1. Use ARP to define an IP address for the Management
Card, and use the Management Card’s MAC address in
the ARP command. The following commands define an
IP address of 156.205.14.141 for a Management Card
that has a MAC address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67:
– 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 Management Card at its new IP
address. For this example, use this command:
telnet 156.205.14.141
4. Use apc for both the user name and password.

To obtain the MAC address, see the label on
the bottom of the Management Card, the
Quality Assurance slip shipped with the
System Controller, or the About System
from the System menu when using a serial
connection to the Management Card, as
described in“Local access to the control
console” on page 4.
See “Control console” on page 7 to finish the
configuration.
