Automatic Transfer Switch - Installation and Quick Start 15
Remote access to the control console
From any computer on the same subnet as the Automatic Transfer Switch, you can use ARP and Ping
to assign an IP address to a Automatic Transfer Switch, and then use Telnet to access that Automatic
Transfer Switch’s control console and configure the needed TCP/IP settings.
Use ARP to define an IP address for the Automatic Transfer Switch, and use the Automatic Transfer
Switch’s MAC address in the ARP command. For example, to define an IP address of
156.205.14.141 for a Automatic Transfer Switch that has a MAC address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67, use
one of the following commands:
Windows command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67
LINUX command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
Note
After the Automatic Transfer Switch has its IP address configured, you can use Telnet,
without first using ARP and Ping, to access that Automatic Transfer Switch.
