Figure 4-1. Run screen.
Now add a static entry to the ARP table and ping the console server to assign the IP address to the console server. In the example below, a console
server has a MAC Address 00:13:C6:00:02:0F (designated on the label on the bottom of the unit) and we are setting its IP address to
192.168.100.23. Also the PC/workstation issuing the arp command must be on the same network segment as the console server (that is, have an IP
address of 192.168.100.xxx)
• Type arp -s 192.168.100.23 00-13-C6-00-02-0F (Note for UNIX the syntax is: arp -s 192.168.100.23 00:13:C6:00:02:0F).
• Type ping -t 192.18.100.23 to start a continuous ping to the new IP Address.
• Turn on the console server and wait for it to configure itself with the new IP address. It will start replying to the ping at this point.
• Type arp –d to flush the ARP cache again.
