IP addresses 192.168.138.0 through 192.168.138.255 are reserved
and should not be used. A serious system conflict can occur if an IP
address in this range is assigned to the processor.
If you use an IP address in the range of 192.168.x.y (where x is not 138),
then you must set the Subnet Address to 255.255.255.0.
c. The default Primary and Secondary DNS Server addresses are
configured for 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4, which are public DNS addresses created by
Google, and only need to be modified if being replaced with network-
specific DNS addresses.
3. To configure the MPA system to Obtain an IP Address from a DHCP server:
Note: Verify that an Ethernet cable linked to a DCHP server or router is
connected before setting the IP Address to DHCP.
a. Change the IP Address to the letters "DHCP"
# MPA IP address configuration file.
IPADDR=DHCP
b. When IPADDR=DHCP is used, all further Addresses in this file are
ignored.
4. Copy the reconfigured mpa_ipconfig file to the USB flash drive, if it is not
already on one.
5. Ensure the MPA system has been turned on for at least 4 to 5 minutes, and that
either the SCM-210's Ready LED is solid green or that the AM4022 Processor's
status LED in the top left corner of the processor is solid green.
6. Close all open remote software connections to the MPA system, such as
Remote GUI, VNC, and/or SCPI.
7. Connect the configured USB flash drive to the MPA's processor card.
•
For units with an AM4022 Processor, the USB flash drive connects to the
AM4022 processor's USB port using the USB Mini-A adaptor cable that
came with the system.
•
For units with an SCM-210 card, the USB flash drive can be connected to
the most appropriate of the three USB ports available. The three USB
ports provided on the SCM-210 card include a standard USB 2.0 port, a
standard USB 3.0 port, and a Micro-B USB 2.0 port (which requires a USB
Micro-B adaptor cable).
