* Set the MAC and IP address in the :ref:`core device configuration flash storage <core-device-flash-storage>`: ::
* You can set it through JTAG by generating a flash storage image and then flashing it: ::
$ artiq_mkfs flash_storage.img -s mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -s ip xx.xx.xx.xx
$ artiq_flash -f flash_storage.img proxy storage start
* Or, if you have a serial connection ready, you can set it via the runtime test mode command line
* Boot the board.
* Quickly run flterm (in ``path/to/misoc/tools``) to access the serial console.
* If you weren't quick enough to see anything in the serial console, press the reset button.
* Wait for "Press 't' to enter test mode..." to appear and hit the ``t`` key.
* Enter the following commands (which will erase the flash storage content).
::
test> fserase
test> fswrite ip xx.xx.xx.xx
test> fswrite mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
* Then reboot.
You should see something like this in the serial console: ::
$ ./tools/flterm --port /dev/ttyUSB1

.. note:: The reset button of the KC705 board is the "CPU_RST" labeled button.
.. warning:: Both those instructions will result in the flash storage being wiped out. However you can use the test mode to change the IP/MAC without erasing everything if you skip the "fserase" command.
* (optional) You may also want to set ``netmask`` and ``gateway`` in the same way that you set ``ip``.

* (optional) Flash the idle kernel
The idle kernel is the kernel (some piece of code running on the core device) which the core device runs whenever it is not connected to a PC via ethernet.
The idle kernel is the kernel (some piece of code running on the core device) which the core device runs whenever it is not connected to a PC via Ethernet.
This kernel is therefore stored in the :ref:`core device configuration flash storage <core-device-flash-storage>`.
To flash the idle kernel:
