Point to Static IP address

When I am entering the IP address during the initial setup in Standard Setup do I point it to my static IP address 78.105.171.155 or to the one I set up on my router 192.168.1.69
Because currently it points to 192.168.1.69 and it thinks my DNS name is Bunnymen.config, if I point it to my static one 78.105.171.155 which is pointed to my website address by the name host and RDNS by the internet service provider will it give me a DNS name of Bunnymen.com?

You need to setup whatever IP address your machine will have when it's running.
Ignore completely, for the moment, any NAT address that external users would use to get to your server (via port forwarding in your router). The server knows nothing (and doesn't need to know anything) about that address at this point.
Therefore, if you've setup your router to use port forwarding to forward connections to 192.168.1.69 (which is what I think you're saying), that is the address you configure the server with.

Printer working Scanner not working after changing to a static ip address

I have an HP 7500A wide format printer. I recently added a second router at my house to extend my wifi signal. After that, the printer kept dropping the network connection. So I set a static ip address of 192.168.1.250 for the printer. Now the network connection seems solid, but when I try to scan from the Scan3 software on my Mac, it says it cannot find the printer. I have a MacPro running OS X 7.5. Thanks for any help.
This question was solved.

Hi @Carpenter47
I am sorry to hear the issue is not yet resolved. Let's try something different. I have a feeling the issue might be related to the static IP address. Please complete the following steps.
From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Right Arrow button () to display the second navigation screen.
Touch the Network icon.
Touch the Down Arrow () to select Restore Network Defaults, and then touch Yes to confirm that you want to restore the network defaults for the printer.
Return to the second navigation screen, and then touch the Down Arrow to select Wireless.
Touch the Down Arrow to select Wireless Radio, and then touch Off to turn off the wireless radio on the printer.
Return to the Wireless Radio menu item, and then touch On to turn the wireless radio back on.
Now put the printer back on the network using the steps below;
On the printer control panel, touch the Right Arrow (), and then touch Network.
Touch Wireless, touch Wireless Setup Wizard, and then touch OK.
Touch the name of your network.
If the list does not contain your network name, follow these steps to enter it manually:
Touch Enter New Network Name (SSID).
Enter your network name. Make sure that you type the uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small) letters exactly. Otherwise, the wireless connection will fail.
When you finish entering the new network name, touch Done, and then touch OK.
Touch Infrastructure, and then touch WEP encryption or WPA encryption.
If you do not want to use encryption (a security password), touch No, my network does not use encryption.
If prompted, enter the WEP or WPA key, touch Done, and then touch OK to confirm. The printer attempts to connect to the network.
- Source for these wireless troubleshooting steps: Wireless & network section of the 7500a support page
At this point, you should now be able to Browse devices in the Scan software and see the printer. I understand you created a static IP because of having a second router, but let's back peddle for a moment to see if we can get the scanning working again. Typically having a second router causes issues as the printer detects 2 access points and I guess you could say 'it gets confused, but we will see what happens with a automatic IP address and go from there.

DNS and Static IP Address Question on Solaris v10 X86

I�ve recently installed Solaris v10 X86 and have two questions. The system is a Dell E521 with 4GB RAM and 1GB SysKonnect NIC, and internet is provided via a cable modem, that�s plugged into a Netgear router, and the Solaris 10 box is plugged into the Netgear router via a CAT5 ethernet cable.
1. I can connect to my router login page using the following URL:
http://192.168.1.1/start.htm and I can also connect to various web pages such as yahoo, if I first "ping yahoo.com" (on another machine that�s internet enabled) and then plug the web site�s ip address into the Solaris/Mozilla browser. So it appears that I haven�t been successful at pointing the Solaris x86 at a DNS server to resolve the DNS name.
2. I've purchased a commercially available software package and it requires a static ip address for this Solaris x86 server. If the ip address changes, it�ll stop working by design and require that I reacquire the license file. When connecting through this Netgear router, how do I lock this Solaris v10 x86 server into a specific ip address? (the ip address floats presently when cycling my PC�s on/off) presently, and assume the Solaris box will too, usually through an ip range of 192.168.1.<1 through 5>

The NIC is a SysKonnect 9821 1GB Ethernet card. The drivers in Solaris 10 were apparently very old and didn't install drivers or configure/plumb when I installed Solaris 10, so I downloaded the
latest drivers (hard to find!), followed the instructions and got the NIC drivers installed and then plumbed.
My router's ip address appears to be 192.168.1.1 and in one of the articles I've read, there is a recommendation to create a file (touch) within /etc named defaultrouter and enter the router's ip address. I did this, and the file now contains:
192.168.1.1
I also read where another file called resolv.conf needed to be pointed to a DNS server, which in this case, according to my Netgear router, and according to ipconfig/all on another WinBox on the same network, also shows the same 192.168.1.1 address for the DNS, so I created that file too (wasn't there) and it contains:
nameserver 192.168.1.1
There is a host name file called hostname.skge0 and it contains one line:
INTHOST
There is a hosts file, and it contains:
127.0.0.1 localhost loghost homex86
192.168.1.3 INTHOST
There is a netmasks file, and other than the commented out lines, it appears to contain one relevant line:

Finally, I've also seen some advice using the folling command (and I tried it):
"route add default 192.168.1.1" as an alternative method of setting up route table
The only other command I've tried is:
"ifconfig skge0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" but I suspect that was redundant as the plumb command I used to get the NIC functioning earlier probably already provided what was needed.
Finally, on this small network, I ran an ipconfig/all on a Windows based PC, to see what network settings were reported through the wireless connection, and this is an excerpt of that information:

Hyper-V Gen 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 VM cannot define static IP address

Hi,
I have setup a physical server with Windows Server 2012 R2. It has only the Hyper-V role installed. The physical server has two NICs that I have teamed with Hyper-V port as the load balancer. I have created 1 VM on this Hyper-V server that is a
Generation 2 VM running Windows Server 2012 R2. It has one NIC in the guest OS that is connected to the Hyper-V switch.
Now the Guest OS works fine and network connectivity is great when using DHCP but when I configure a static IP address in the Guest OS all network connectivity is lost even with correct IP configuration. Is this something to do with a Gen 2 VM?
A little more background - We have another Hyper-V server running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the same NIC teaming in the Host OS, on this Hyper-V there is a GEN 1 Windows Server 2012 R2 that has a static IP configured which is working normally.
Any help is appreciated.

I have resolved the issue. It appeared the hard IP phones were using the same IP range that I was attempting to use so of course the VM could not use the IP Address. Silly mistake.
Elliot, I suggest you mark as Helpful and Answer any responses above that were helpful to you in getting this issue resolved. This is how the forums work.
For example, if a response mentioned "VM generation has no effect on the vNIC." and that pointed you in the direction of troubleshooting networking instead of wasting your time looking into VM generations, that may be considered "Helpful"
If a response mentioned "Make sure you're using valid IPv4 settings" and indeed you ended up having invalid IP settings such as a duplicate IP, this may be considered "Answer"

TC Port Forwarding Static IP Address

I have a domain for which I've pointed the DNS to my static IP address.
My network flow is as follows: Internet --> Westell DSL Modem (AT&T) --> TC.
I'd like TC to forward port 80 requests to a Mac Mini. On the Mini Web sharing is enabled. From any machine on my network I can hit the internal address of the Mini and I get the default Apache page.
Using the AirPort Utility (TC) I've enabled Port Mapping --> Personal Web Sharing. The Private IP Address is the IP Address of the Mini. Public TCP Port = 80. Private TCP Port = 80.
Now, where "I think" the problem lies in the TC Internet Connection. When IPv4 uses DHCP, TC gets a 192.168.1.* IP address AND a 192.168.1.* Router Address (the addresses are different).
When I set Ipv4 "manually" I don't know what to put in the Router Address. TC is still the router but what address do I use now??? If I use the static IP for both IP & Router address I get no internet connection.
Thanks in advance!

I gathered from this thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9114081&#9114081) that the Router Address is synonymous with Gateway Address.
After speaking with my ISP my static IP and gateway addresses don't start with the same octet. So the Airport Utility complains about them not being compatible.
I wouldn't think of using all ZEROs in the subnet mask.
Any ideas?

Port Forwarding and Static IP addresses

Netcomm NB1300 router and Airport Express.
I want to use and old G3 mac running 10.3.9 as a server for HTTP and FTP. The Mac is currently connected via Airport but I can connect it via Ethernet if necessary.
I understand that I will have to activate Port Forwarding on my Router with Ports 21 and 80 to allow external Internet access to the G3. I will also have to configure DHCP Manually for a Static IP address and probably link up with a Free DNS service to maintain reliable access to the G3.
I have other computers on the network, two Macs (Ethernet / 10.3.9 & Airport 10.4.11) and two PC's (one with Vista, one with XP / both on Airport). Only one of the extra Macs is connected via ethernet, the rest are connected via Airport.
Will I have to assign Static IP addresses to all the computers or just the one I want to use as a server?
And also, can anyone tell me about Port Forwarding via Port 22 to give more security from external observation/attacks? I know nothing about this security measure.
Thanks in advance.
Christo.

I am now assuming I will be able to access the 'server' from an external location. Very optimistic! But I can't test that for a couple of days.
Ah, but you've given up too soon! You can access your web server from outside your network real easy: you just need to find an external client you can point back to your site. I like to use the W4C validator to do that. It has the happy side effect of also telling you if your web page markup is valid. So you'd point your browser to the validator page:
http://validator.w3.org/
I like to choose "More Options" and tell it to show the page source. That way I can also verify that it's seeing the page I want it to see.
If I disconnect the iBook from Ethernet, can it still be accessible from an external location if it is connected to the Router via Airport, or do I have do so something like Port Forwarding with my Airport Express as well? Note the iBook can still connect to the Internet via Airport.
It would depend on how your Airport is set up. I think there are a couple of ways to set them up. One is to make the Airport a DHCP server, which would make the wireless network essentially a separate network. In that case, you'd have to forward throught the Airport, too.
My wireless network, though, is set up to bridge, so it's all one network. In that case, all I'd have to do to forward wirelessly to a client would be to set up the forward on the main router.
Being that persons other than myself will be accessing the iBook via FTP, do I give them the user account password of the Mac, or can I set a password in the Router or something else?
Also, when accessing the iBook on my local network using Cyberduck, I can see the entire directory of the iBook's user account. Is there a way to limit access to just one folder, such as the Public folder, or a self-designated folder?
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about setting up FTP. I would suggest that you look into maybe making an account on the iBook specifically for the FTP user and only give out that username and password. You might want to poke around in the Networking and the Web and Unix discussions in the Mac OS X Technologies area. I've seen a number of posts there about setting up FTP, and you might be able to find your answers there.

EA6700 - Maximum Static IP Addresses

Is there a limit on the number of Static IP Addresses on the EA6700? There are currently three open entries called Static DNS 1, 2, 3. I am using all three, and would like to add a fourth for the WAP300N Access Point. Is there a way to add a fourth Static IP Address? Thanks

Thanks for the advice. I thought I knew what I was doing by "reserving" IP addresses using the DNS entry. Now that I found and read the User Guide, I understand how to “reserve” these devices. I still need to find the Linksys valid ranges for static vs dynamic on the EA6700. I don't see this info in the user guide. Or does it matter?
Don't I just go to the DHCP Reseration Table, select the devices, and click on Add DHCP Reservation? This reserves whatever IP address was dynamically assigned to it. Currentlu on the DHCP panel, the Start IP address is 192.168.1.100, number of users is 50, so the range is 192.168.1.100 - 149. I will clear out the DNS entries. I may just reset the router and start over. If the range begins at 192.168.1.100, then I'll use 192.168.1.2-99 as static addresses and 192.168.1.100-150 for dynamic IP addresses.
Is the default Release Time of 1440 (24 hours) adequate?
Should I keep dynamic and static IP address separated in different ranges as in your example? .
We have 24 devices on our home network including laptops, desktops, printers, iPads, iPhones, NAS, etc.
I planned on setting static IP addresses for my primary desktop (where I manage the network), network printers, IP cameras, WAP300N Access Point, Seagate BlackArmor 440 NAS, Honeywell 6280 Tuxedo keypad, and Xbox 1.

Problem iPhone WiFi Connection to Airport Express with static IP addresses

We have our Airport Express configured on the LAN with a fixed IP. It is not distributing IP addresses, or providing DHCP services; it simply links the WiFi to the LAN.
To connect via WiFi you set a static IP for the wireless device and enter all IP information by hand (IP/Router/Mask/DHCP etc). Laptops can connect fine, and use the network.
The iPhone connects to the wireless network ok (we tried with security on and off), however, it seems to be unable to successfully use the network. Any attempt to browse a web page using a numeric IP address, or regular IP address, fails.
Has anyone successfully used the iPhone on a WiFi network with static IP addresses, and a Wireless access point that also uses a static IP address?

The problem with static IP on iPhone was caused by the IP address being blocked by over-zealous network manager...

PowerShell script to set VM static IP address - multiple subscriptions

Hi,
I have set successfully static IP Address to all of my virtual machines until now (1 subscription) using Set-AzureStaticVNetIP
But now I have 2 Azure subscriptions. The virtual networks names are the same at both of the suscriptions.
The question is:
How to define the subscription to use when defining static IP addresses to VMs?
Thanks in advance!

Hi SCCMadmin09,
Considering that you have successfully set static IP Address to all of your virtual machines until now for one of the subscriptions :
Login to your Azure account with the command ; this time you should be entering your second subscription login credentials.
Add-AzureAccount
Add-AzureAccount
: This will open a windows login dialog that will allow you to enter your credentials of the second subscription.
Now you need to find the name of the subscription you created your virtual machines under. The command is:
Get-AzureSubscription
The output will give the Azure subscription information
Here in the example, Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN a/c is used. The command to select this is:
Select-AzureSubscription
: Select Azure Subscription: Enter your subscription name and then ENTER:
Eg : Visual Studio Ultimate with MSDN
At this point you are connected to your subscription and can begin to work with the virtual machines created under it.
There are two parameters you will need to have:
ServiceName
= the name of your virtual machine. Example :
DTechHST-Test01
Name
= the same name you entered as the ServiceName
And finally the commands, there are three.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name>
Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
Update-AzureVM
Unfortunately, entering these commands one at a time fails. They must be strung together via “pipes”.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName <your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "<your_new_ip_address>"
| Update-AzureVM
As an example:
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName HST-Test01 -Name HST-Test01 | Set-AzureStaticVNetIP -IPAddress "192.168.224.50"
| Update-AzureVM
In the event that you need to remove an assigned IP address, use the following command structure.
Get-AzureVM -ServiceName
<your_vm_name> -Name <your_vm_name> | Remove-AzureStaticVNetIP | Update-AzureVM
Hope this helps.

How set configure a static IP address correctly on Actiontec MI 424WR rev F??

I just got a new Verizon/Actiontec replacement router and I want to configure 4 or 5 static IP addresses beginning at 192.168.1.201 and above.
At this point, I have changed the DHCP range from 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.250, to 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200, so that is now the DHCP pool. That presumably leaves anything above 192.168.1.200 open for static IP assignments.
a) So now how do I create a Static IP reservation for a device? (what router screens should I use? do the device(s) that I want a static IP have to be connected?, etc.)
b) Once I have the static IP address reserved/configured, how can I make the appropriate port forward rule(s) for the devices? Specifically, I want to allow SSH connections to each of the static IP addresses/devices.
(I tried this once but the router complained after I made the first port forwarding rule saying that it was already in use!?!? and I want to avoid this problem again)
Thanks

How to get the same IP assignment per device

thanks for your suggestion. I figured out what to do...I let each device receive an address by DHCP, and then in the router, I went to Advanced -> Connections, double clicked on the device to get more details and set the "Static Lease" check box.
What this does is a address reservation for the device, but still configures it via DHCP.
It would be nice if the router manual noted this small detail, that devices can be configured as having a static address 'reservation' that is administered by the DHCP service, OR, one can set a 'static IP address' by ensuring that the device address is outside of the DHCP pool.

Can I assign Airport Express to static IP Address?

Current setup - Airport Extreme attached to cable modem with 2 hard drives, Airport Express as print server in separate room with USB printer attached (just changed from Linksys with sometimes working NetGear print server). Clients accessing the network: 2 Windows XP, 1 Windows 7, iPads, iPhones, iPods, Apple TV, and sometimes a Mac Book.
The issue is that we don't keep the printing system on at all times (light switch with Express and printer plugged in); We dont't do much printing, and I print to pdf most of the time. As a result, the Express IP address changes every time it's turned on, requiring me to change the port settings on the printer properties before anyone can print. Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?

Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?
Yes. The first order of business is to find the AirPort ID for the AirPort Express. You do this by opening AirPort Utility and clicking once on the Express. In the area to the right, jot down the AirPort ID.
Still in AirPort Utility, now click on the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Click the DHCP tab below the Advanced icon
Look for the DHCP Reservations area and click on the + (plus) button at the bottom
Enter a description, for example AirPort Express
Click the MAC Address button and click Continue
Enter the AirPort ID in the MAC Address box
Assign the IP address you want the Express to use, for example 10.0.1.20
Click Done, then click Apply and the AirPort Extreme will restart
It would be a good idea to power cycle the entire network as follows:
Power everything down...all devices, order is not important
Power up the modem first, then AirPort Extreme, then Express, then devices

Is an 'external' static IP address required to set up DNS

Hi there
I'm going to be setting up a OSX Server 10.3 machine as an open directory master, to take advantage of single sign-on capabilities.
From what I have read in manuals and in this topic: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=977178&tstart=15 , it is necessary to configure the DNS service first. However, the topic talks about having an external IP address for the server, as well as for the internet router.
Is this the only method that will work? The network only has one external IP address as far as I am aware.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
Matt

The answer is, it depends.
If you want your server to provide any external services then it will need an external IP address. Now, depending on your network, you may be able to use a single IP address on your router, having it NAT incoming connections via port forwarding - that's a common setup.
The bigger issue is whether you need a static IP address or can live with a dynamic one. A static IP address is required if you're running certain services such as DNS or Mail. Other services might be able to get by with a dynamic IP, depending on what you're doing with them (for example, it's OK to run a personal web site on a dynamic IP address, but you wouldn't want to do that for a corporate web site that gets a lot of traffic.

How to Configure a Blackfin Static IP Address

I've read that the Blackfin lwip stack wants a DHCP server to assign it an IPaddress. I've proven that this works for me using a BF537 EZ-Kit.
Now I'd like to configure an application with a static IP address so I can use a crossover cable between a computer and the EZKIT.
I've seen a method to do this in the LWIP User Guide but this seems to apply only to projects built using Visual DSP. Is there a method to set a static IP address from LabVIEW Embedded? The LV "build specifications" properties dialog seems to indicate as such but it doesn't seem to work when I try it. If I disable DHCP my application doesn't work at all.

Try these steps:
1) Disconnect your computer from your network.
2) Connect the crossover cable between your computer and the Blackfin EZ-Kit.
3) Assign a static IP address to your computer. If you don't know how to do this, follow the directions at the following Microsoft Website:
https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sag_tcpip_pro_manual...
If you don't know what numbers to fill in while following the directions, use the following settings for your computer.
IP Address: 10.0.0.1
Net Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 10.0.0.254
4) Start LabVIEW and open your project.
5) Configure LWIP to a static IP address. To do this, open the Build Spec dialog in LabVIEW and click on the TCP/IP tab. Enable lwIP and uncheck Use DHCP. Fill in a IP address.
If your computer is setup with the above settings, the following Build Spec Options can be used for LWIP:
IP Address: 10.0.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 10.0.0.254

How to Assign a Static IP address to VM created from VM template

Hello All,
I'm New to SCVMM, I have installed my SCVMM 2012 R2 in Lab environment and added 02 Hyper Servers on the same (One server is in domain & another one is in Perimeter Network). Once I added the Hyper-V's two Virtual
Network's has been detected in SCVMM.
Now I'm trying to create a new VM in each Hyper-V with a static IP address. I have created the VM template without connecting to any network, while creating the VM, below is my settings,
VMNetwork : VMPeri01 (Perimeter VM Network)
VM subnet : None
(Grayed out)
IP Address:
Clicked Static IP
IP Protocol version: IPV4 only
MAC address:
clicked Static (its showing 00:00:00:00:00:00)
Question: How can I assign the static IP to my New VM?
Note: I have created a static IP pool for the virtual network (w.r.t : http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/blogs/lowe/news/adding-an-ip-pool-to-vmm-2012-241.html)
Please help me to create the VM using Static IP (specific address now)

While creating the VM choose the Virtual Network on the Hyper-V from the IP pool which you have created it wil take the IP during provisioning.

Point to Static IP address
