Appendix 1: IP Address Settings for the Remote Management Card
Overview
All devices on a computer network need to have an IP address. Each device’s IP address is
unique. The same address cannot be used twice. In order to assign an IP address to the Remote
Management Card, you must determine the range of the available IP addresses, and then
choose an unused IP address to assign to the Remote Management Card.
PLEASE NOTE: You may need to contact your network administrator to obtain an available IP
address.
Procedures to find an IP address:
1.
Locate the subnet of Remote Management Card.
One way to determine the range of possible IP addresses is to view the network
configuration on a workstation. Click on [Start] and select [Run]. Type “command” into the
open box and click [OK]. At the command prompt type “ipconfig /all” and press [Enter]. The
computer will display network information as listed below:
Ethernet adapter
Connection-specific DNS Suffix…………: xxxx.com
Description……………………: D-Link DE220 ISA PnP LAN adapter
Physical Address…………….: 00-80-C8-DA-7A-C0
DHCP Enabled……………....: Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled ...: Yes
IP Address…………………..: 192.168.20.102
Subnet Mask………………..: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway……..……...: 192.168.20.1
DHCP Server…………..…….: 192.168.20.1
DNS Servers…………………: 211.20.71.202
168.95.1.1
2.
Select an IP Address for Remote Management Card
Verify the IP Addresses for the computer and the Remote Management Card belong to the
same subnet. Refer to the above network information, the possible IP Address for the
Remote Management Card could be 192.168.20.* (* hereafter represents any number
between 1 and 255). Similarly, if the Subnet Mask is 255.255.0.0, the IP Address for
Remote Management Card could be set up as 192.168.*.* to reach the same subnet with
the computer.
To verify there is no other equipment connected to the network using the same IP Address,
run “Ping 192.168.20.240” at the DOS Mode prompt when the IP Address you would like to
set is 192.168.20.240. If the response is presented as below, the IP address is most likely
not used and may be available for the Remote Management Card.
