Determining the Network Settings

If you are not sure what the network information is on a DeviceMaster UP, you
can perform the following procedure.

At the RedBoot prompt, type ip.

Note: Optionally, you can install PortVision DX on a Windows system on the

network and see the IP information in the Device List pane.
