4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network
Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the iServer’s default IP address to
access it and assign a new IP address to it.
The iServer is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of
255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that
is in the same range as the iServer’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the iServer
using a crossover network cable between your PC and the iServer.
With this completed, you can go to the DOS-Prompt and ping 192.168.1.200. If you
receive responses back (Figure 4.1), you can go to a Web browser and type in
http://192.168.1.200 and it will take you to the iServer’s main web page.
Select
,
button, you’ll be asked for the password. The default LOGIN
password is "12345678" and the ADMINISTRATOR password is "00000000", then you
should be on the Access Control page were you can simply type in the desired Static IP
address, and click Save.
Figure 4.4 Access Control
For the IP address to take effect, the iServer needs to be turned OFF/ON. Clicking on
the “Save” button will save the changes and turn the iServer (only the Ethernet board of
the unit) OFF and ON. Pressing the physical button marked “RESET” on the iServer
(right next to the RJ45 Ethernet Port) will also power reset the Ethernet board.
You can now connect the iServer to an Ethernet hub using a straight through cable,
power it up, and follow the ping routine mentioned in the previous section.
