Network
This page allows configuration of the network settings for the unit. Note that the unit is initially
configured for DHCP.
DHCP
DHCP service will automatically interrogate any DHCP server
when a machine boots up and assign a free IP address, subnet
and gateway. This can be used to ensure an IP address is unique
to this machine. However, this could result in the machine having
a different IP address every time it boots. The IP address should
be noted and then DHCP disabled. Alternatively the unit can be
configured for DNS which enables DHCP to be maintained.
DHCP IP
This is the IP address the DHCP server has allocated to the unit.
DHCP Subnet
This is the subnet of the network the unit is on that was
automatically allocated by the DHCP server on power up.
DHCP Gateway

the DHCP server.
