Proceed as follows:
1. Turn off the AST570.
2. Open a command line (DOS) window (Windows OS), or a
terminal window (UNIX, Linux) on a PC.
3. At the command prompt execute: arp –a
This allows you to overview the current entries in the ARP
cache.
4. Add a static entry to the ARP cache, according to following
syntax:
arp –s <ST IP address> 01–90–D0–80–01–01
<ST IP address> is a placeholder for the IP address to be
assigned to the AST570. It can be any address within your
subnet as long as it is not used by any other member of your
local network.
5. To verify whether this step was successful execute arp –a a
second time.
In the entries list, your arp –s command entry should be
added.
6. Initiate a continuous pinging, by executing following
command:
ping –t <ST IP address>
7. Turn on the AST570.
8. After the AST570 finished its POST, it will configure the IP
address <ST IP address> you are pinging.
9. You must clear the entry in the ARP cache by issuing
the following command:
arp –d <ST IP address>
10. Verify connectivity by pinging the AST570 a second time:
ping <ST IP address>
The AST570 should reply.
11. Browse to the AST570 pages and click
new IP address permanent.
