each PC with activated auto-DHCP function through the name
Swyx
or by its IP address
172.23.56.254
.
If the configuration PC does not obtain its IP address from the
SwyxConnect DHCP server, figure out the current IP address of this
PC (with
Start
Execute
cmd
and command
ipconfig
at the
prompt under Windows 2000 or Windows XP, with
Start
Execute
cmd
and the command
winipcfg
at the prompt under Windows Me
and Windows 9x, or with the command
ifconfig
on the console under
Linux). In this case, the SwyxConnect is reachable under the IP
address
x.x.x.254
( “x” stands for the first three blocks in the IP
address of the configuration PC).
4.3.0.2 Network with DHCP server
If a DHCP server is active in the LAN to assign IP addresses, an
unconfigured SwyxConnect device will turn off its own DHCP
server. It will change into DHCP client mode and will obtain an IP
address from the DHCP server of the LAN. This IP address is not
known at first. The accessibility of the device depends on the name
resolution:
• If there is a DNS server for name resolution in the LAN, which
interchanges the assignment of IP addresses to names with the
DHCP server, then the device can be accessed by the name
“Swyx <MAC address>” (e.g. “Swyx-00a057xxxxxx”).
The MAC address can be found on a label at the bottom of the device.
• If there is no DNS server in the LAN, or it is not linked to the
DHCP server, then the device can not be reached by the name.
The following options remain in this case:
http://Swyx
http://172.23.56.254
http://Swyx-00a05700094A
