5.3 Laptop/Computer IP Address Configuration
Configure the laptop IP address using the following steps. Note: Only Windows is detailed below, however
you can use any OS/Browser you wish such as MacOS or Linux. Details on network setup for
non-windows operating systems is beyond the scope of this document however.
5.3.1
From the Windows start menu, select the “Settings”, “Network Connections” option. Double
click the ‘Local Area’ network connection icon in the network folder, then click the
“Properties” button.
5.3.2
In the network setup dialog, there should be a list of items including adapters, clients and
protocols. Locate the item labeled “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)”.
Note: If you have multiple ethernet cards, you may have multiple lines labeled
“TCP/IP ----> ethernet card”. Locate the ethernet card that corresponds to the physical
connection to the EMB Hub and then select the
TCP/IP option that is linked with that ethernet card.
5.3.3
Double click the TCP/IP option you selected in
step 5.3.2 above. The Internet Protocol properties
dialog will be shown. This page allows you to select
DHCP (obtain an IP address automatically) or
configure an address manually.
5.3.4
Select the option for “Use the following IP address”
as shown in the picture to the right. Set the IP and
Netmask from the Laptop Address Worksheet above.
It would be helpful to make note of your previous
settings in this dialog so you may set them back after
you are done with the EMB Hub configuration.
5.3.5
Close the TCP/IP settings dialog, and Network dialog.
