9Automatic Transfer Switch—Installation and Quick Start
Remote access to the control console
From any computer on the same network as the Rack ATS, you can use ARP and Ping to assign an IP
address to the Rack ATS and then use Telnet to access the control console of that Rack ATS and
configure the other TCP/IP settings.
Note: After the IP address of the Rack ATS is configured, you can use Telnet, without first
using ARP and Ping, to access that Rack ATS.
1. Use ARP to define an IP address for the Rack ATS and use the MAC address of the Rack ATS in
the ARP command. For example, to define an IP address of 156.205.14.141 for a Rack ATS 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: The MAC address can be found in the About ATS menu of the control console
or Web interface and also on the Quality Assurance slip included in the package.
2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the ARP command. For
example:
Windows command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113
LINUX command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113
3. Use Telnet to access the Rack ATS at its newly assigned IP address. For example:
telnet 156.205.14.141
4. Use apc for both user name and password.
5. See “Control console” on page 10 to finish the configuration.
