Setting And Checking The New Ip Address - Epson EPL-N2550 Network Manual

Setting and checking the new IP address

To set the new IP address of the network interface which you have
obtained from your network administrator, use the ping
command and arp command with the -s flag (create an ARP
entry).
Note:
In the following procedure, we assume that the MAC address of your
network interface is 00:00:48:93:00:00 (hexadecimal), and that the IP
address which you will be assigning is 192.168.100.201 (decimal).
Substitute your values for these addresses when you type in the
commands.
1. From the command line, type:
Example: arp -s 192.168.100.201 00-00-48-93-00-00
2. Execute the ping command to set the IP address by pinging
it: Example:
ping 192.168.100.201
3. The network interface should now respond to the ping. If it
does not, you may have incorrectly typed the MAC address
or the IP address in the arp -s command. Double-check and
try again. If none of these actions are effective, re-initialize the
network interface and try again.
4. Print a status sheet to check whether the new IP address has
been assigned to the network interface.
Note:
When the IP address is set by the ping command, the subnet mask
is automatically changed by the class of the IP address. To change
the subnet mask and the default gateway according to your network
environment, use EpsonNet Config for Windows or Macintosh.
