NOTE: The first character must be an alpha character, and the last character cannot be a hyphen. The unit name is not case-sensitive.

•DHCP: DHCP is a communications protocol that assigns addresses on the local network automatically. Select the On or Off radio button to enable or disable DHCP.

•IP Address: You can enter a new network address consisting of four sets of up to three digits, separated by periods (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn).

•Gateway IP Address: A gateway is a device that connects your network with others that may be using different, incompatible communications protocols. You can enter your gateway address (obtained from your network administrator), using the same format that is used for the IP Address. (If there is no gateway, this field defaults to 0.0.0.0.)
