Hello,

Is the IP of the workstation able to get to the IP of the management port? Same subnet, etc.? Did you set a network mask and gateway as well? Were the changes commited?

Regards,

Hello,

Here are the generic commands you would need to run:

configure
set deviceconfig system ip-address <IP address> netmask <subnet mask> default-gateway <gateway>
set deviceconfig system dns-setting servers primary <IP of internal DNS server if no internal DNS server use 208.67.220.220 >
set deviceconfig system ntp-servers primary-ntp-server ntp-server-address <IP of NTP server or use us.pool.ntp.org>
commit

Regards,
