Editing the VTA.ini File

The VI-5990 ships with a default IP address of 192.168.0.46. You can use this address as
is, providing that you connect to the platform with a PC configured for a compatible
address using a crossover cable or an appropriate switch. However, if you prefer to
connect the VI-5990 to your existing IP network and assign it a different IP address, you
can override the existing IP address by creating a VTA.ini file and introducing it through
a USB drive. Use the following entries as a guideline.

[Network]
IP=192.168.0.46
NetMask=255.255.255.0
DefaultGateway=192.168.0.254

Notes regarding VTA.ini file entries:

1.

No white space is allowed within the entries (spaces or tabs).

2.

The data is not case sensitive.

3.

The USB drive is not required for future reboots and should be removed after
the initial load.

4.

If the USB drive is inserted when the VI-5990 is powered up in the future, the
values within the file will override any settings saved on the hard drive.

5.

Obviously, select values that are compatible with your network, and
specifically the device that will be used to configure your platform.
