5) Configure IP Address

Press 3 to enter IP address configuration.  Press 1 to proceed.  Enter the IP address, the netmask and the 

gateway.  Press 1 to proceed.  This will need to be done on each device. 

6) Configure Domain Name

Press 5 to enter the domain name configuration area.  Press 1 then enter the domain name.  Enter only 

the domain, DO NOT enter patriot, patriot-1 or patriot-2.  Then press 1.  Press enter.  You should return to 

the main menu.  This will need to be done on each device.

7) Set Speed and Duplex

Change speed and duplex (ethernet media settings) on the main interface, if necessary. This will need to 

be done on each device, if necessary.  Default is auto-negotiation.

8) Open the Firewall

Press 8 to allow an IP address or network through the firewall.  The important ports would be 22 (SSH), 

80 (HTTP), and 443 (HTTPS).  This is to allow a machine to access the DHCPatriot system for 

administration purposes.  The system defaults to not letting anything through, so at least one machine will 

need to be allowed prior to rebooting after setting the IP address.  This only needs to be performed on one 

device.
