Label Tab, Network Configuration Enable Dhcp

Figure 2-4: <Network> Configuration

•<Enable DHCP>

When <Enable DHCP> is enabled, the device will contact a DHCP server to be assigned an IP address, subnet mask, gateway IP address and DNS servers. When disabled, the device requires these parameters to be set manually.

•<IP Address>

The IP Address field is the device’s <IP address>. If DHCP is disabled, this field is required. If DHCP is enabled, this field is not editable. This field must be a valid IP address, and if an invalid IP address is entered, the OSD will prompt the administrator to correct it.

•<Subnet Mask>

The <Subnet Mask> field is the device’s subnet mask. If DHCP is disabled, this field is required.

If DHCP is enabled, this field is not editable. This field must be a valid subnet mask, if an invalid subnet mask is entered, the OSD will prompt the administrator to correct it.

•<Gateway>

The <Gateway> field is the device’s gateway IP address. If DHCP is disabled, this field is required. If DHCP is enabled, this field is not editable.

•<Primary DNS Server>

The <Primary DNS Server > field is the device’s primary DNS IP address. This field is optional. If DHCP is enabled, this field is not editable.

•<Secondary DNS Server>

The <Secondary DNS Server> field is the device’s secondary DNS IP address. This field is optional. If DHCP is enabled, this field is not editable.

•<Domain Name>

The <Domain Name> is the domain name used, e.g. ‘domain.local’. This field is optional. This field specifies the domain that the Host or Portal is on.

•<FQDN>

The <FQDN> is the Fully Qualified Domain Name for the Host or Portal. The default is pcoip-host-MAC or pcoip-portal- MAC where MAC is the Host or Portal’s MAC address. If used, the Domain Name will be appended, e.g. pcoip-host- MAC.domain.local.

•<Ethernet Mode>

The <Ethernet Mode> field configures the Ethernet mode of the Portal. The options are:

•<Auto>

•<10 Mbps Full-Duplex>

•<100 Mbps Full-Duplex>

Administrators should always set the <Ethernet Mode> to <Auto> and only use <10 Mbps Full-Duplex> or <100 Mbps Full-Duplex> when the other network equipment, e.g. switch, is also configured to operate at <10 Mbps Full- Duplex> or <100 Mbps Full-Duplex>.

<Label> Tab

The <Label> tab allows an administrator to add custom information for the Host or Portal.
