IP Assignment
NOTE: Changing the IP Assignment will require a reboot of the console.
In a multi-Ethernet Comm Device configuration, only one Ethernet Comm Device can be set up as
'Dynamic'. Once an Ethernet Comm Device is set up as 'Dynamic', the rest of the Ethernet Comm
Devices will remain 'Static' and cannot be changed to 'Dynamic' from their own screens. To set
another Ethernet Comm Device to 'Dynamic', the user will have to set the Ethernet Comm Device
currently designated 'Dynamic' to 'Static' before making the change.
Allowable selection: Dynamic, Static. Default: Static
NOTES:
The terms Dynamic and Static are defined as they relate to an IP Assignment.
•
Dynamic - When the IP Assignment is Dynamic, an Ethernet Comm Device can have a
different IP address every time it connects to the network. This address is usually
administered by a Network service such as DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
•
Static - When the IP Assignment is Static, an Ethernet Comm Device will have a permanent
IP address every time it connects to the network. This address is entered by the console
user.
IP Address
NOTE: Changing the IP Address will require a reboot of the console.
Format - The format of this field will use the IPv4 dot-decimal notation, e.g. 192.0.2.235
Allowable selections: Numeric XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (0 to 255 each field) . Default: 0.0.0.0
