2 InstallationWhen installing one or mo re new LAN Docking Station s to your network, you can set it up in
one of two ways:
Use the DHCP service on yo ur network to assign IP address es to the LAN Docking Stati ons
based on the MAC address of eac h LAN Docking Station, or
Set the LAN dockin g station to a default IP address t o access the configuration inte rface and
assign a fixed IP address
The LAN Docking has a d efault configuration set ting to use the DHCP server to ob tain its IP
address. This makes it ea sier to do a batch installation o f several LAN Docking Stat ions in a
corporate network . See Installation using DHC P below for more information.
If your network does not su pport DHCP, you can set the LAN Doc king Station to use a default
static IP address to get st arted. See Installat ion using the factory default I P address below for more
information.
