13Automatic Transfer Switch Installation and Quick Start
Remote access to the control console
From any computer on the same subnet as the Automatic Transfer Switch, you can use ARP and Ping to
assign an IP address to a Automatic Transfer Switch, and then use Telnet to access that Automatic
Transfer Switches control console and configure the needed TCP/IP settings.
Note: After the Automatic Transfer Switch has its IP address configured, you can use Telnet, without
first using ARP and Ping, to access that Automatic Transfer Switch.
Use ARP to define an IP address for the Automatic Transfer Switch, and use the Automatic Transfer
Switches MAC address in the ARP command. For example, to define an IP address of 156.205.14.141
for a Automatic Transfer Switch that has a MAC address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67, 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
