Re: Service Tool IP Address

[Evan Harris <spanner@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Chis

I seem to remember setting a Service tools address using SST (or DST 
- whichever one is the one you get using Option 21 from the front 
panel) under the Service tools, configuration or devices.

I set this address as part of a LAN console set up, but don't 
remember the exact menu items - I  guess if you can hunt around the 
menu options a bit to see if anything pairs up with the wrong address 
you keep seeing. There was some relationship between setting the 
address in the Lan Consoel set up and the address the Lan Console 
card was on. Nothing about this was intuitive hence my poor memory of it.

I realise that's a bit vague, and don't know if it is applicable, but 
I hope it helps even if it just ends up being an option you can rule 
out, or at least some other avenue to explore.

Good luck
