text: <s>[INST] Kinetix 6500 - ip address changing procedure Summary: How to do it? Hi, It's my first time with k6500, and I have a little problem. I need to change default ip adress of k6500. I tried to do this by RsLinx and Boot-DHCP server without success. Before using BOOT-DHCP I have changed k6500 to boot mode ( node: 888). Even with this settings I wasn't able to set static address IP and disable boot-dhcp. Boot-dhcp status said Unable to service BOOTP requested from ...(MAC). I hope many of you know what is the procedure to change default ip address of this module. I asked RA motion specialist how to do this, but received only that I need to change module mode to bootp (by setting node to 888) and then I will be able to set static address by boot-dhcp. Unfortunately it wasn't work. Any ideas? cheers, Przemek [/INST] The specialist left out a couple of steps.

It took several tries before I realized I WAS skipping a step. \\n </s>
