(if

applicable) and check mark

Addressing the Frame URL

To address a 2000 Kameleon frame from an internet browser, enter the
frame’s default URL into the URL line of the browser (

LOCATION

in Netscape

Navigator,

ADDRESS

in Internet Explorer). The URL will be the IP Address

given to the frame during initial setup (see

Setting Frame Network Identity

on page 21

), or a Domain name that has been mapped to the IP address in

your Domain Name Server tables. The URL should look like this:

http://{Frame’s IP Address}/

Example:

http://127.123.234.2/

Or:

http://{Frame’s Domain Name}/

Example:

http://frame1.xyz.com/

The correctly entered URL will call up the 2000 frame’s default first page—
Frame Status.

Default MAC (machine) Address

Each 2000 Kameleon frame has a unique ethernet physical level MAC
address that is stored in the frame ID memory chip. If this memory has
failed, the 2000NET module will substitute a default MAC address: 08-00-
11-09-CD-AB. If more than one 2000 frame in your network is assigned the
default MAC address, network conflicts will occur. To verify the frame has
a unique MAC address refer to

Network Configuration Changes on page 35
