Set a temporary IP Address on the NIC using the ARP command.Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127 and network card address00:80:87:01:00:D2# arp –s 192.168.20.127 00:80:87:01:00:D2 tempThe Ethernet address (MAC address) is displayed during the self-diagnostic test. A temporary address does not need to be set if an IPaddress has already been set.3. Use the PING command to confirm the connection with thenetwork card.Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127# ping 192.168.20.127If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IPaddress (the IP address has been already set manually ordynamically), or with the network.
