CAM IP change procedure

Prerequisites

Overview

This procedure shows how to change the TPS/MGD Subnet (CAM IP) when the host IP on site is conflict with the system IP address or the host IP will change and the new one is conflict with the system IP. In our system there are only two IP address available, which are 10.0.1; 192.168.*.*.

Procedure

  1. Turn the VRE power OFF from Common Service Desktop. (Utility/VRE/Power Control)

If the host IP is same with the TPS/MGD Subnet the one error message will pop up. See Figure 3

    Figure 2. GI

  3. After setting the configuration click the Configure button at the left bottom and then Exit the Install GUI once completed and reboot the system to active the new setting. If the host IP is same with the TPS/MGD Subnet the one error message will pop up. See Figure 3.

If this is the case repeat till LED blink sequence is as noted. Once this LED is on continuosly, it has received its IP from host. NOTE: now use the browser interface described above to set port mode to RealPort.

      The need for this activity is required each time to initiate the rarp requests. Our default configuration will be RealPort
