1.
PC connected via ETH/USB adapter
We recommend using the "X5" - external ETH/USB adapter (an optional accessory of the RipEX).
The ETH/USB contains a built-in DHCP server, so if you have a DHCP client in your PC as most
users, you don’t need to set anything up. The RipEX’s IP address for access over the ETH/USB
adapter is fixed: 10.9.8.7.
Go to 3. Login to RipEX

Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
