Portserver 2 (fitted in the CCDC rack on the INT Cass rotator) only brings out to the front panel of the tray Ports 9 through to 16. These are reserved for Cass instrumentation.
Ports 1 through to 8 are reserved for the Prime Focus WFC RS232 connections. Those of the eight which are used plug directly into the RJ45 sockets and are hardwired to a 55way connector on the rear of the PortServer tray. To gain access to ports 1 to 8 for loop back tests etc, the tray needs to be removed from the rack on the telescope and the lid taken off.

Now you must enter the following commands. The easiest way is to open a telnet session to the PortServer in one window and then using the mouse, cut the commands from below and paste them into the telnet session.
set config submask=255.255.255.0
set config domain=ing.iac.es
set config gateway=161.72.6.1

Now you can exit if you choose or review the configuration. e.g.
cpconf term
exit
At this point you should confirm that the PortServer completes its power-on self test. All being well, the PortServer is now ready for operation. Good Luck...
