VoIP gateway IP400 version 5.01
2.2.4 Setting the IP-interface parameters without DHCP
You will have to set the IP interface parameters of the gateway yourself, if your
network does not have a DHCP server.
In addition, you have to deactivate the DHCP client built into the gateway and acti-
vate the built-in DHCP server. Both are done by pressing the
Reset
button briefly
after a cold restart.
For configuration, the gateway is first connected directly to your computer.
• If your computer is connected to the local network, disconnect it from the
network for the duration of the initial configuration of the gateway.
... for experts
• If possible, configure your PC using DHCP!
• In the standard configuration, the gateway's DHCP server is only switched
on after a “reset”.
• Connect up the Ethernet connectors of the gateway and PC “back to back”
(sliding switch to “
connect to PC
”).
• If your PC has been configured via DHCP, then update the IP address using
winipcfg
or
ipconfig
. Otherwise, set the IP address of the PC perma-
nently to 192.168.0.2.
• The gateway has the address 192.168.0.1.
Note
Ask your network administrator if you are not sure about which IP address
and subnet mask you can use for the gateway, as well as whether you are
able to use a default gateway, and if so, which one.
Caution
If the computer is connected to the network by a coaxial-cable (
thin Ether-
net
) Remove the BNC-T-piece from the Ethernet adapter. Make sure that the
network cable is not split in the process, as otherwise your network will no
longer work.
