DHCP Selection

The DHCP On selection directs the device to ignore any entered IP addresses and obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the network is DHCP capable). The DHCP Off selection turns DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator for additional information on your network.

IP Address Field

The IP Address field contains the IP address encoded in the flash memory of the connected device.

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields separated by dots (periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at the installation site, change the IP address to any valid value.

NOTE: IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system administrators should change IP addresses.

Gateway IP Address Field

The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail server to be used if the device and the mail server are not on the same subnet.

The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.

Subnet Mask Field

The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the device is on the same subnet as the mail server when you are subnetting.

MAC Address Field

The Media Access Control (MAC) address is hardcoded in the device and cannot be changed.

Firmware Field

The Firmware field displays the current firmware version being used by the device.

Model Field

The Model field displays the Extron model number of the device.

Part Number Field

The Part Number field displays the Extron Electronics part number of the device.
