3.1 Default IP address
The Network Management Card comes with a default IP address. This address is derived from the MAC address on the
label on the front of the card.
The format of the MAC address is 00 E0 D8 LL MM NN, where:
◗ 00 E0 D8 is the manufacturer code in hexadecimal format,
◗ LL MM NN is the serial number of the card in hexadecimal format.
The default IP address of the card is made up of four bytes of which the last two are derived from the MAC address.
The format of the IP address is 172.17.xxx.yyy, where:
◗ 172.17 is a fixed value,
◗ xxx is the decimal value of the MM byte,
◗ yyy is the decimal value of the NN byte.
For example, for a MAC address 00 E0 D8 04 0A 15, the corresponding default IP address is 172.17.10.21.
