If the DMS matrix switcher has never been configured and is still set for factory defaults,
proceed to step 4. If not, perform a Mode 4 system reset and then proceed to step 4.
For detailed information on reset modes (see

Performing Soft System Resets

[Modes 3, 4, and 5])

on page 38).

NOTE: The DMS matrix switcher must be configured with the factory default IP

address (192.168.254.254) before the ARP command is executed, as described
below.

At the PC, access the MS-DOS command prompt (see

Pinging to determine the

Extron IP address

, steps 1 through 3 on the previous page), then enter the

arp

–s

command. Type in the desired new IP address for the unit (obtained in step 1) and the
MAC address of the unit (from the rear panel of the unit), for example

arp

–s

197

00-05-A6-03-69-B0

and then press .

The computer returns the command prompt (

C:\

After you issue the arp -s command, the controller changes to the new address and
starts responding to the ping requests to the new address, as described in the next
step.

NOTE: You

must ping the DMS matrix switcher for the IP address change to take

place. The response should show the new IP address (see figure 75).

Execute a ping command by entering ping followed by a space and the new IP address
at the command prompt. For example:

ping

197

C:\>ping 10.13.197.7

Pinging 10.13.197.7 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 10.13.197.7: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128

Ping statistics for 10.13.197.7:

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

Figure 75.

Ping with New Address

NOTE: You can reconnect using either Telnet or a web browser to verify that the

update was successful.

After verifying that the IP address change was successful, enter and issue the

arp

–d

command at the DOS prompt. For example:

arp

–d

197

removes 10.13.197.7 from the ARP table

arp

–d*

removes all static IP addresses from the ARP table.
