2. Ensure that an Ethernet cable is connected to Ethernet Port 1 (E1) of the
module.
3. Use a program such as Putty to Telnet into the module.
 Select Telnet as the Connection type.
 Enter the IP address (192.168.0.250)
 Port 23 should appear as the Port number.
4. Click the Open button to establish a connection.
5. Login into the module.
There are two methods used to change the module's IP address. One is
temporary for use in cases where you want to change the address long enough
to make a quick change. The other is more permanent in that the module is
already programmed and is ready for full deployment.
Temporary IP Address Change
At the Linux prompt, type:
ifconfig eth0 x.x.x.x
-- This changes the IP address of the Ethernet E1 port
ifconfig eth1 x.x.x.x
-- This changes the IP address of the Ethernet E2 port.
Permanent IP Address Change
At the Linux prompt, type:
cd ../etc/network
-- changes the directory to network
vi interfaces
-- opens the interfaces file for ethernet assignment in a vi editor
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.250
network 192.168.0.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
