Configuring the DHCP Server 

The Ethernet Switch DHCP Server will configure automatically all the IP Addresses of the 500752 
Encoder  and  Decoder,  eliminating  conflict  between  devices.    If  this  functionality  is  absent  from 
your Ethernet Switch you will have to use the MuxLab management software to assign static IP to 
each  of  the  500752.    Before  using  the  software,  you  will  need  to  configure  a  static  IP  on  the 
computer in the same Subnet (192.168.168.xxx) as the 500752, use 192.168.168.1. 

 

1.

 

Select  Administration->Management  Interface->IPv4  Interface.    Set  the  IP  Address  type  like 
Static,  set  the  IP  Address,  like  168.168.1.1  and  set  the  Mask.  After  applying  the  setting  you 
will  need  to  change  the  IP  Address  of  the  Computer  Network  interface  for  the  same  subnet, 
take  an  address  like  168.168.1.2.    Reconnect  the  Cisco  Web  Interface  using 
HTTP://168.168.1.1
