Digi TS8, 16 manual Options for Configuring the IP Address and Mask

Options for Configuring the IP Address and Mask

Options

The PortServer TS 8/16 IP address can be configured using the following methods:

•With Digi Port Authority-Remote, a Digi utility

•By updating the ARP table on a server and then pinging the Digi device (called Ping-ARP)

•From the command line using the set config command

•Using a RARP server

•Using a DHCP server

The IP address and mask can also be changed using the web interface. This method, however, does not work for the initial IP address configuration.
