Here's a quick tip for those of you looking to find your LOCAL (as in within your network) IP address. In Windows, you would simply issue the following command from the command prompt (Start > Run > "cmd") ipconfig Which would yield something similar to the following results. U:\>ipconfig Windows IP Configuration Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : mshome.net IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 177.21.101.137 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 177.21.101.1 From a Linux shell, you would issue the following: ifconfig Which would yield something similar to the following results eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:EA:91:04:07 inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20f:eaff:fe91:407/64 Scope: UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:31167 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:26404 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:38338591 (36.5 MiB) TX bytes:3538152 (3.3 MiB) Interrupt:18 Base address:0xc000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:1994 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1994 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:188041 (183.6 KiB) TX bytes:188041 (183.6 KiB)

Dir of Sales I have an encoder attached to my laptop vis ethernet. How can I find the IP address of that device? There is supposed to be a default IP address from the manufacturer, but I am not able to ping it. Any ideas? |
