5: Changing the UBox's Settings

Overriding Server Network Settings

You can override server network settings to configure a UBox that is in a static IP- based network. This makes it so that you do not have to change your local TCP settings, connect to the UBox using a direct Ethernet connection, or set up a DHCP address.

Note: By default, the UBox gets a DHCP or Zeroconfig IP address. In some cases, this address is on a different subnet from the subnet your computer is on. If this is the case, the computer cannot see the UBox.

To override network settings:

1.Select the UBox on the USB Devices, Servers, or Local Settings tab.

2.From the Advanced menu, select Override Server Network Settings. The Override Server Network Settings window opens.

	Automatic (default): The UBox tries to get an IP address
	using DHCP first. If it fails to obtain an IP address within 10
	seconds, it assigns itself an IP address using Zeroconfig.
	This is the recommended setting for most users.
	Use DHCP: The UBox automatically obtains an address
	using DHCP server. Use this setting if you only want to use
	an IP address obtained via a DHCP server.
	Use Zeroconfig: In this mode, the UBox assigns itself an
	IP address using the Zeroconfig protocol. Zeroconfig IP
