Using ARP in
Windows
In Windows 95 and Windows NT, the Internet address can be set
using the ARP method. Perform the following commands to
download the Internet address and verify the communication.
From the DOS prompt,
t
ype the following:
Example:
The host will return ‘
Reply from 192.36.253.80...’
or a similar
message. This indicates that the address has been set and that the
communication is established.
Notes:
❏ The
Ethernet address
or
node address
equals the serial
number found on the underside label of the AXIS 700 with each
pair of digits separated by a hyphen.
❏ Once the AXIS 700 has established communication using an
appropriate Internet address, the
arp
/
ping
commands cannot be
used to change the address. The reason for this is to avoid
accidental or unauthorized changes of the Internet address.
Restart the AXIS 700 to make it accept the setting of the Internet
address.
❏ In Windows 95, the
arp
command cannot be used if you have an
empty ARP table. Type
arp -a
to view the ARP table. If it is
empty you must ping an existing unit on your network before you
can set the Internet address of your AXIS 700.
❏ When you execute the
ping
command for the first time, the
response time may be significantly longer than usual.
arp -s <Internet address> <Ethernet address>
ping <Internet address>
arp -s 192.36.253.80 00-40-8c-11-00-86
ping 192.36.253.80
