7. Type in the following command to set up the routing table:
ping 11.22.33.44
8. Add an entry in the ARP table that assigns an IP address to the hardware address
of the Ethernet card. Use the following command:
arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>
For example:
arp -s 192.1.1.6 00-00-48-92-BD-9A
For Windows NT, substitute colons (:) for the hyphens (-)
shown in the MAC address.
9. Wait at least two minutes for the settings to reach the card, then start a
continuous “ping” to the card, using the following command with the card IP
address:
ping <IP address>
For example:
ping 192.1.1.6
You see a message similar to the following:
Reply from 192.1.1.6: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=30
Reply from 192.1.1.6: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=30
Reply from 192.1.1.6: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=30
Reply from 192.1.1.6: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=30
This shows that the Ethernet card is correctly set up for TCP/IP.
If you receive 4 lines that say “Request Timed Out,” the card is not set up
correctly. Make sure the card is on the same segment of the network as the
workstation you are using to configure it and that you typed in the correct IP and
MAC addresses.
If you have trouble getting the network to recognize the card,
check Chapter 12, Troubleshooting, in the
Administrator’s
Manual
for solutions to possible problems.
