NPort 6000 Series Initial IP Address Configuration
To use ARP to configure the IP address, complete the following:
1. Obtain a valid IP address for your NPort 6000 from your network administrator.
2. Obtain your NPort 6000’s MAC address from the label on the bottom panel.
3. Execute the ARP s command from your computer’s MS-DOS prompt as follows:
arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>
For example,
C:\> arp -s 192.168.200.100 00-90-E8-04-00-11
4. Next, execute a special Telnet command by entering the following exactly:
telnet 192.168.200.100 6000
When you enter this command, a Connect failed message will appear, as shown below.
5. After the NPort 6000 reboots, its IP address will be assigned to the new address, and you can reconnect
using Telnet to verify that the update was successful.
Telnet Console
Depending on how your computer and network are configured, you may find it convenient to use network
access to set up your NPort 6000’s IP address. This can be done using Telnet.
ATTENTION
Figures in this section were taken from the NPort 6650’s Telnet console.
1. From the Windows desktop, select Start Run and type the following in the Run window:
telnet 192.168.127.254
If your IP address is different from the default setting, use your IP address instead. Click OK.
2. The console terminal type selection is displayed as shown. Enter 1 for ansi/vt100 and press ENTER to
continue.
