DHCP Name If a DHCP server has automatically assigned the IP address and network settings,
you can discover the unit by using the DeviceInstaller network search f eature.
There are three methods for assigning DHCP names to the unit.
Default DHCP Name: If you do not change the DHCP name, and you are using an
IP of 0.0.0.0, then the DHCP name defaults to CXXXXXX (XXXXXX is the last 6
digits of the MAC address shown on the label on the bottom/side of the unit). For
example, if the MAC address is 00-20-4A-12-34-56, then the default DHCP name is
C123456.
Custom DHCP Name: You can create your own DHCP name. If you are using an IP
address of 0.0.0.0, then the last option in Server configuration is Change DH CP
device name. This option allows you to change the DHCP name to an alpha numeric
name (LTX in our example).
Change DHCP device name (not set) ? (N) Y
Enter new DHCP device name : LTX
Numeric DHCP Name: You can change the DHCP name by specifying the last octet
of the IP address. When you use this method, the DHCP name is LTX YY where YY
is what you chose for the last octet of the IP address. If the IP address you specif y is
0.0.0.12, then the DHCP name is LTX12. This method only works with 2 d igit
numbers (01-99).
