IP Address

You can either manually enter a static IP address or use a DHCP server to dynamically assign one. If you enable a DHCP server to assign an IP address to the B060-032-8, we recommend that you configure the B060-032-8 to send an e-mail notification if the IP address changes, which is explained later in this section.

To use a DHCP server to assign an IP address:

Under DHCP Enabled, click Yes. Obtain the IP Address pulled by the DHCP server from your network administrator. To manually assign an IP address:

(a)Under DHCP Enabled, click No.

(b)Under Manual IP Address, enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and primary DNS server as given to you by your Network Administrator. You can also enter an alternate DNS server; however, it is not required.

Port Settings: Enter the network ports that the B060-032-8 will use to transfer WebPages and communicate with client programs. Typically, port 80 is used for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) communications, while port 443 is used for HTTP over Secure Socket Layer (HTTPS). Failure to assign a port for each field will cause the B060-032-8 Administrator Utility to function incorrectly.

System Event Reports: The B060-032-8 can be configured to send an e-mail notification whenever the DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the B060-032-8. Enable the Mail Notification feature and specify the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server address, information for a valid e-mail account on the server, and the e-mail address of the person to whom the message should be sent. To enable system event reports:

(a)Under System Event Report Settings, click Yes to enable Mail Notification.

(b)Enter the address of the SMTP server.

(c)If the SMTP server requires authentication, click Yes to enable SMTP Authentication. Skip to step (f) if not.

(d)In the Account Name field, enter the username for a valid e-mail account on the SMTP server you entered in step (b).

(e)In the Password field, enter the password for the e-mail account you entered in step (d).

(f)In the From field, enter the e-mail address for the e-mail account you entered in step (d).

(g)In the To field, enter the e-mail address of the person to whom the notification message should be sent.

(h)Click Save and Restart. The B060-032-8 will save the changes, restart and return to the login page. If the B060-032-8 stalls during the Save and Restart for more than 5 minutes, simply close out of the Internet and login using the IP Address you just set up. If this IP Address does not work, try using the previous IP, or have your network administrator check for an automatically pulled IP Address on the DHCP server.
