Assigning an IP Address Using HTTP

To assign an IP address using HTTP, follow these 9 steps:

1Disconnect the V7122 gateway from the network and reconnect it to your PC using one of the following two methods:

ƒUse a standard Ethernet cable to connect the network interface on your PC to a port on a network hub / switch. Use a second standard Ethernet cable to connect the V7122 gateway to another port on the same network hub / switch.

ƒUse an Ethernet cross-over cable to directly connect the network interface on your PC to the V7122 gateway.

2Change your PCs IP address and subnet mask to correspond with the V7122 gateway factory default IP address and subnet mask (shown in Table 6). For details on changing the IP address and subnet mask of your PC, see the Windows™ Online Help (Start>Help).

3Access the V7122 gateway first modules Embedded Web Server (see Accessing the Embedded Web Server).

4In the Quick Setup screen, set the V7122 gateway IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway IP Address fields under IP Configuration to correspond with your network IP settings. If your network does not feature a default gateway, enter a dummy value in the Default Gateway IP Address field.

5Click the Reset button, and then at the prompt click OK; the V7122 gateway applies the changes and restarts. This takes approximately three minutes to complete. When the V7122 gateway completes the reset, the Ready and LAN LEDs on the front panel are lit green.

Record and retain the IP address and subnet mask you assign the V7122 gateway. Do the same when defining new username or password. If the Embedded Web Server is unavailable (for example, if you have lost your username and password), use the BootP/TFTP configuration utility to access the device, “reflash” the load and reset the password (see the V7122 Digital Gateway User Guide for detailed information on using a BootP/TFTP configuration utility to access the device).

6Repeat Steps 3 to 5 for the V7122 gateway’s second module (if used).

7Disconnect your PC from the V7122 gateway or from the hub / switch (depending on the connection method you used in Step 1).

8Reconnect the V7122 gateway and your PC (if necessary) to the network.

9Restore your PCs IP address and subnet mask to what they originally were. If necessary, restart your PC and re-access the V7122 gateway using the Embedded Web Server with its new assigned IP address.
