Assign Automatically Using

Important

This options is recommended only for advanced users and network administrators since it may be difficult to determine the IP Address of the unit after the IP Address has been automatically asssigned. It is recommended that an IP Address be assigned manually.

If your network is using RARP, BOOTP, or DHCP Server you can Click Assign Automatically Using and click on RARP, BOOTP or DHCP. Under this setting the DCS-900 will automatically assign an IP Address from the RARP, BOOTP or DHCP Server. Each time the DCS-900 starts up, be sure the RARP, BOOTP or DHCP Server is set up to assign a static IP to your DCS-900.

If your application requires direct connection from an ADSL modem through the DCS- 900’s RJ-45 LAN port and you also have an ISP PPPoE account, click on PPPoE and enter the Service Name, User ID and Password into the respective fields.

The DCS-900 will get an IP Address from the ISP each time it starts up.
