Network Settings - This page contains the network IP Address settings of the Ethernet Converter
◗Automatic IP Assignment - This setting specifies the Ethernet Converter to obtain its IP Address from a DHCP server on the network. Consult with your network admin- istrator regarding whether this device should obtain its IP Address from a DHCP Server.
◗Manual Assignment - This setting specifies the Ethernet Converter to operate on a specific IP Address. This is often referred to as a Static IP Address. If a manual assignment is pre- ferred, then you will be required to enter an appropriate IP Address and Subnet Mask for the Ethernet Converter.
■ NOTE: The IP Address is required for configuring the Ethernet Converter. Be careful when changing its address, as it may cause undesired operation. Also, please document any changes and update any browser bookmarks that may be referencing the Ethernet Converter Web Based Configuration.
◗The Ethernet Converter Manager may be used to set the IP Address in the event of changing the IP Address inappropriately.
◗The IP Address does not need to be in the range of the DHCP server's scope to successfully pass DHCP requests to the network client behind the Ethernet Converter.
