Quick Configuration
Remote access
to the control
console
From any computer on the same subnet as the Management
Card, you can use ARP and Ping in a process known as
gleaning, to assign an IP address to a Management Card, and
then use Telnet to access that Management Card’s control
console and configure the needed TCP/IP settings.
1. Use
ARP
to define an IP address for the Management
Card, and use the Management Card’s
MAC
address in the
ARP command. For example, to define an
IP
address of
159.215.15.141 for a Management Card that has a
MAC
address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67, use one of the following
commands:
– Windows command format:
arp -s 159.215.15.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67
– LINUX command format:
arp -s 159.215.15.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address
defined by the ARP command. For the IP address defined
in step 1, use one of the following Ping commands:
– Windows command format:
ping 159.215.15.141 -l 113
– LINUX command format:
ping 159.215.15.141 -s 113
3. Use Telnet to access the Management Card at its newly
assigned
IP
address. For this example, use this command:
telnet 159.215.15.141
4. Use
apc
for both the User Name and Password.
5. See “Control console” on page 16 to finish the
configuration.
Note
After a Management Card has its IP address
configured, you can use Telnet, without first using
ARP and Ping, to access that Management Card.
The Network Management Card quality
assurance test slip lists the
MAC
address.
