Warning

Changing the network settings of the DKVM-IP1 switch might result in losing connection to it. In case you change the settings remotely make sure that all the values are correct and you still have an option to access the DKVM-IP1 switch.

IP auto configuration

With this option you can control if the DKVM-IP1 switch should fetch its network settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For DHCP, select “dhcp” , and for BOOTP select “bootp” accordingly. If you choose “none” then IP auto configuration is disabled.
