Server Configuration
The unit’s basic server (i.e. network) values display upon selecting
Server
(option
0
from the Change Setup menu). The following sections describe the configurable
parameters within the Server configuration menu.
Set the IP Address
If DHCP is not used to assign IP addresses, enter it manually. The IP address must
be set to a unique value in the network. Enter each octet and press Enter between
each section inputted. The current value is displayed in parentheses.
IP Address : ( 0) ( 0) ( 0) ( 0) _
Set the Gateway IP Address
The gateway address, or router, allows communication to other LAN segments. The
gateway address should be the IP address of the router connected to the same LAN
segment as the unit. The gateway address must be within the local network.
The default is
N
(No), indicating the gateway address has not been set. To set the
gateway address, type
Y
. At the prompt, enter the gateway address.
Set Gateway IP Address (N) ? Y
Gateway IP addr ( 0) ( 0) ( 0) ( 0)_
Set the Netmask
A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP address that are assigned for
the host part.
Netmask: Number of Bits for Host Part (0=default) (0) _
The unit prompts for the number of host bits to be entered, then calculates the
netmask, which displays in standard decimal-dot notation when the saved
parameters are displayed (for example, 255.255.255.0).
