On PC

On a PC you'll need this app to connect to the boat via ssh:

http://ftp1.digi.com/support/utilities/changer_digi.zip

Assuming the boat is powered on and the ethernet bridge is plugged in, open the digi tool and hit "search".

The tool should show two bridges. The one with IP ending in 17 is on the boat. The one ending in 20 is what you are connected to. If you do not see either bridge, try turning off wifi and hitting search again. If it still doesn't work, try restarting your PC and/or the Jetson, turing off your firewall, etc.

Once you see both bridges you should be able to ssh in.

  1. Double click the ip ending in 20, and change "Target device new parameters" to be IP: 192.168.17.21. Keep everything else the same.
  2. Hit apply
  3. Then hit yes
  4. Hit search again and wait for it to discover (takes a moment)
  5. Then double click and change back to 192.168.17.20
  6. Hit apply. This may fail. (If it does, carry on)
  7. Hit apply again a second time. This should work.
  8. Make sure the ethernet in your network connections is a static IPv4 which is 192.168.17.20

On Windows 10/11, you can manually set your Ethernet IPv4 address using Settings app or command line: Settings: Open Settings > Network & internet > Ethernet, change IP assignment from Automatic to Manual

  1. Now if you run ipconfig you should see the ethernet as 192.168.17.20 and should be able to ping 192.168.17.17

Now you should be able to shh with putty at [email protected]

The password is "admin"

On Mac

This is intended for those running macOS Catalina. You can find additional instructions for your version of macOS online by searching "how to manually set your IP address - Mac"

On a Mac, first connect the powered ethernet bridge to your machine. Your Mac should recognize that a new network connection is available.

  1. Go to your network settings in System Preferences
  2. Navigate to a network with the name "USB 10/100/1000 LAN" or simply select "Ethernet"
  3. Change the "Configure IPv4" setting to "Manually"
  4. Set the IP address to be anything on the 192.168.17 (Class C) subnet, excluding addresses 17 and 20 as those are reserved for the target and the remote ethernet bridges that you are connecting to. For instance, you could set the IP to 192.168.17.4 (must be between 0 and 255).
  5. Set the subnet mask to be 255.255.255.0
  6. Click "Apply"
  7. Test the connection by pinging 192.168.17.17 (the target IP for the ethernet bridge in the hull)
  8. If you get a response, you can now attempt to ssh in by running ssh [email protected] in Terminal

The password is "admin"
