Arguments for
Command or
Response to
Query
Query only.
Returns the Ethernet MAC address, format:
Example: ETM=0006B0000178
Command or Query.
1=Auto
2=10 MB/sec Half Duplex
3=100 MB/sec Half Duplex
4=10 MB/sec Full Duplex
5=100 MB/sec Full Duplex
Specifies the speed and mode of Ethernet interface.
Command or Query.
Used to set the IP address and mask of the Ethernet interface, in the format:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address
Example: 010.006.030.001
Note: To make the IPA= command effective, one needs to issue the IPM
command immediately following IPA command. IPM should be issued even if
there is no change in the subnet mask.
Changing the IP address will cause the telnet/socket connection to break. So, the
telnet/application should reconnect to the new IP address after timeout.
For Reading also, IPA? is followed by IPM?
Command or Query.
Sets the IP Subnet mask for the interface IP address.
yy is the subnet mask in bits [8..32]
See the NOTE above for IPA.
Sets the one of four HDLC address, where:
In small network mode value is 0x01-0xFE
In large network value is 0x0001-0x7FFE
To delete, set the value to 0xFFFF.
Example: <1/HAD[3]=AB will set the HDLC address to 0xAB
<1/HAD[2]=FFFF will Clear/Delete the HDLC Address.
In Point-to-Point or ViperSat mode the values are not used.
