VR-N100U USERS MANUAL

5.The next screen inquires if you want to Enable Static IP Setting and the other addresses you just entered. If you select the Y, the addresses will be saved. If you select the N, the option to obtain the IP address dynamically in that same tool will be selected. Use the arrow keys to toggle between the Y and N. Press the Enter key to accept your selection.

6.The next screen that displays asks if you want to Reboot System to apply the addresses you entered. Select the Y if you are ready to reboot now. Select the N if you plan to change the default Server Name. Make your selection and press the Enter key. If you select the Y, the VR-N100U will reboot. The LCD Panel will keep you informed about what is happening. If you select the N, you will go back to the Network Setup screen.

You can now skip the following Methods as you have manually setup the VR-N100U IP address situation. You are ready to go to the next step.

Method 3: EazyIP

You can use EazyIP to assign a temporary IP address to your VR-N100U, if:

Your workstation uses Microsoft Networking, and NetBios is installed

Your workstation is connected to the same subnet as the VR-N100U

You are operating in a Class C IP networking environment

When you use EazyIP, you have to assign VR-N100U a node number as part of the IP address. You can get this number from the network administrator.

NOTE: The first three numbers of VR-N100U’s new address will be the same as the first three numbers of your workstation’s IP address. The fourth number is the node number that was given to you.

1.Open your web browser.

2.Make note of your workstation’s IP address. If you are using Windows 95/98, you can find your workstation’s IP address by Running winipcfg.exe. For Windows NT/2000/XP users, you can Run ipconfig.exe.

3.Enter the VR-N100UNamein your web browser’s address/location field. The VR-N100UNametakes the form ZXXXXXX_NNN. The first part of the name, ZXXXXXX, the default name, can be found on the label of the VR-N100U enclosure. NNN is the node number.

If, for example, the default http://ZFAB10B_199 in the

VR-N100UNameon the label is ZFAB10B, and the assigned node number is 199, you would enter address/location field of your web browser.

The use of this URL will force VR-N100U to change its IP address, 10.10.10.10, to the new address, which, continuing with the example above, will be XX.YY.ZZ.199. (The values XX.YY.ZZ match those of your workstation’s IP address, because both are on a Class C network.)

EazyIP should work under the following Microsoft Networking operating systems:

Windows 95

Windows 98

Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0

Windows 2000 Professional

Windows XP

WFW using the Microsoft 32-bit TCP/IP stack

Now that you have acquired an IP address using EazyIP, continue to Step 2 Using the VR-N100U Web Browser.

If you are unable to use EazyIP or VDRView because you are not in a Windows environment, or if you don’t meet one of the other criteria mentioned earlier, try this next final method.

Method 4: Set a Workstation IP Address

If you are not using Windows at all, you will have to reconfigure your workstation to an IP address on the same IP network (subnet) as the VR-N100U.

1.Make note of your workstation’s IP address, then reconfigure it to 10.10.10.X, where X is a number from 1 through 9.
