Initial IP Address Configuration

Initializing NPort’s IP Address

1.Determine whether your NPort needs to use a Static IP or Dynamic IP (either DHCP or BOOTP application).

2.If NPort is used in a Static IP environment, you can use NPort Administration Suite, ARP, Web Console, or Telnet Console to configure the new IP address.

3.If NPort is used in a Dynamic IP environment, you can use NPort Administration suite, Web Console, or Telnet Console to configure NPort to get an IP address dynamically with DHCP, DHCP/BOOTP, or BOOTP.

Consult your network administrator on how to reserve a fixed IP address (for your NPort) in the MAC-IP mapping table when using a DHCP Server or BOOTP Server. In most applications, you should assign a fixed IP address to your NPort.

Factory Default IP Address

NPort products are configured with the following default private IP address:

Default IP address:

192.168.127.254

(IP addresses of the form 192.168.xxx.xxx are referred to as private IP addresses, since it is not possible to directly access a device configured with a private IP address from a public network. For example, you would not be able to ping such a device from an outside Internet connection. NPort applications that require sending data over a public network, such as the Internet, require setting up the server with a valid public IP address, which can be leased from a local ISP.)

LCM Display

We recommend using the LCM display and four push buttons to configure the IP address for the first time.

Basic Operation

If the NPort is working properly, the LCM panel will display a green color. The red Ready LED will also light up, indicating that the NPort is receiving power. After the red Ready LED turns green, you will see a display similar to:

N	P	5	6	1	0	-	1	6	_	3	8
1	9	2	.	1	6	8	.	1	2	7	.	2	5	4

This is where

•	NP5610-16	is the NPort’s name
•	38	is the NPort’s serial number
•	192.168.127.254	is the NPort’s IP address
