When you first get your APC 7900, you won’t be able to talk to it. Here is how I configured mine. Assign an IP adress to the APC 7900 To assign an IP address to an APC 7900: # arp -s 10.0.0.128 00:C0:B7:78:8A:7E # ping -s 113 10.0.0.128 PING 10.0.0.128 (10.0.0.128): 113 data bytes 121 bytes from 10.0.0.128: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=91.755 ms 121 bytes from 10.0.0.128: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=4.165 ms 121 bytes from
