). View the responses
in the Responses field (

).
For example, enter 1I, the command to display the model name, in the Commands:
field (

What is an IP Address?
A full explanation of IP addressing is beyond the scope of this user guide. However, the
following information is enough to get started.
An IP address is a 32‑bit binary number that is used to identify each device on an Ethernet
network. This number is usually represented by four decimal numbers (each in the
range 0 to 255) separated by dots, (for example, 198.123.34.240). This is called
"dotted decimal notation".
An IP address is divided into two parts:
• The network identifier
• The host identifier
On a given network, each address must have the same network identifier value, but have a
unique host identifier. There are, therefore, different classes of addresses that define:
• The range of valid addresses.
• The parts of the address used to identify the network and host.
The most common IP address classes are:
Class Valid Address Range Identifier Arrangement
Class A 0.0.0.1 to 127.255.255.254
NNN.HHH.HHH.HHH
Class B 128.0.0.1 through 191.255.255.254
NNN.NNN.HHH.HHH
Class C 192.0.0.1 through 223.255.255.254
NNN.NNN.NNN.HHH
NOTES:
• NNN = Network identifier
• HHH = Host identifier
