Web Configuration Using DHCP

This method requires that your network implement DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), usually on a server or network access device such as a router that dynamically allows devices to join the network without pre-configuration. It also assumes that you will have easy access to your network’s DHCP log, since you will need to know the IP address of the unit to complete the configuration over your Web browser. (If you are unsure of how to access your network’s DHCP log, contact your System Administrator for details.) If the unit is powered on and connected to the network via LAN port on the rear panel, it will automatically attempt to lease an IP address using DHCP. Before you can begin the configuration process, you will need to access the DHCP log from your file server or other device that acts as the DHCP server on the network. A simple DHCP log looks similar to the following:

The information displayed for your own network may vary significantly from the data displayed in the image, but should supply (at minimum) three essential details: IP address, MAC address, and device (or machine) name for the computers and other devices connected to your network. The values for the SVxx41HDIE tested above are as follows:

IP Address: 192.168.22.4

MAC Address: 00-0E-C5-00-08-1A

Device Name: (none)
