Assign an IP address from the command-line interface

Use the set network command to configure an IP address from the command line. The set network command includes the following parameters:

• ip=device ip: The IP address for the device.
• gateway=gateway: The network gateway IP address.
• garp=seconds: The frequency of Gratuitous ARP (GARP) announcements, in seconds, which are a broadcast announcement to the network of a device’s MAC address and the IP address.
• submask=device submask: The device subnet mask for the IPaddress.
• dhcp=off: Turns off use of the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), so that the IP address assigned is permanent.
• static=on: Specifies that the IP address is static, and will remain as the specified IP address, gateway, and submask.

For example:

set network ip=10.0.0.100 gateway=10.0.0.1 submask=255.255.255.0 dhcp=off static=on

To configure the Digi Connect SP through the command line, you must change the DIP switches. See Set DIP switches on Digi Connect SP\Wi-SP for an illustration of the DIP switch settings.
