🍏 Update the network configuration (IP, gateway, etc.) of a Mac mini robot

📘 Overview

This guide explains how to update the network configuration of a Mac mini robot. You can set the IP address, gateway, and any other parameters required to ensure a stable connection after moving the device or bringing it back into service.

🧰 Prerequisites

• An external display (connected to the Mac mini via HDMI or USB-C)
• A keyboard and a mouse (wired or Bluetooth)
• An RJ45 Ethernet cable connected to your network (with the necessary flows open toward kapptivate)
• The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway details provided by your IT team

⚙️ Configuration steps

1️⃣ Open the network settings

Turn on the Mac mini, then go to:  (Apple) → System Settings → Network.

2️⃣ Configure the Ethernet interface

Select the Ethernet interface, then click Advanced.

In the TCP/IP tab, choose Configure IPv4 manually, then fill in:

• IP Address
• Subnet Mask
• Gateway

Then click OK and Apply.

3️⃣ Verify network connectivity

Open Terminal (⌘ + space → Terminal), then run:

curl -v telnet://app.kapptivate.com:443
curl -v telnet://app.kapptivate.com:5671

If needed, replace app with your own kapptivate domain. You can find this information directly in your platform’s URL (example: your_domain.kapptivate.com).
