How to change of virtual IP Office R11.1 via console 1

[Okkie26]

Guys,

I'm installing a virtual IP Office R11.1 at the moment.

In the old days you could change the ip adress via de VM ware console before startup and ignition of the IP Office.

Now, since I do not have a pc or laptop in the 192.168.42.x network I cannot change the IP via webmanagement or manager.

But how can I change it?

Tnx
