Assigning an IP Address

For the unit to operate correctly on a network, it must have a unique IP address on

the network. There are three basic methods for logging into the device server and

assigning the IP address:

DHCP: By default, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled on the

device server. DHCP allows a DHCP server to automatically assign an IP address to

the device server. If you use DHCP, the device server is assigned a new IP address

each time it boots.

DeviceInstaller: You can manually assign the IP address using a graphical user

interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network. (See 3:Getting Started.)

Serial Port Login: With this method, you connect a terminal or a PC running a

terminal emulation program to the unit’s serial port (CH 1). (See 4:Using Setup

Mode.)
