Web Console Configuration

You must assign a valid IP address to NPort 5410/5430/5340I before it will work in your network environment. Your network system administrator should provide you with an IP address and related settings for your network. The IP address must be unique within the network (otherwise, NPort 5410/5430/5340I will not have a valid connection to the network). First time users can refer to Chapter 3, Initial IP Address Configuration, for more information.

You can choose from four possible IP Configuration modesStatic, DHCP, DHCP/BOOTP, and BOOTPlocated under the web console screen’s IP configuration drop-down box.

x.x.x.255 are invalid.)

 

 

An IP address is a number assigned to a network device (such as a computer) as a permanent address on the network. Computers use the IP addressed to identify and talk to each other over the network. Choose a proper IP address which is unique and valid in your network environment.

Netmask

Ex. 255.255.255.0

Required

 

 

 

A subnet mask represents all the network hosts at one geographic location, in one building, or on the same local area network. When a packet is sent out over the network, the NPort will use the subnet mask to check whether the desired TCP/IP host specified in the packet is on local network segment. If the address is on the same network segment as the NPort, a connection established directly from the NPort. Otherwise, the connection is established through the given default gateway.

Gateway

Setting

Factory Default

Necessity

Ex. 192.168.1.1

None

Optional

A gateway is a network gateway that acts as an entrance to another network. Usually, the computers that control traffic within the network or at the local Internet service provider are gateway nodes. NPort needs to know the IP address of the default gateway computer in order to communicate with the hosts outside the local network environment. For correct gateway IP address information, consult the network administrator.
