TCP/IP

IP Address

IP address for the IAD-200 / IAD-200W, as seen from the local LAN.

 

Use the default value unless the address is already in use or your LAN

 

is using a different IP address range. In the latter case, enter an unused

 

IP Address from within the range used by your LAN.

 

 

Subnet Mask

The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")

 

networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN

 

segment to which the IAD-200 / IAD-200W is attached (the same

 

value as the PCs on that LAN segment).

 

 

DHCP Server

• If Enabled, the IAD-200 / IAD-200W will allocate IP Addresses

 

to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start up. The de-

 

fault (and recommended) value is Enabled.

 

• If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be

 

Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-configured to

 

treat the IAD-200 / IAD-200W as the default Gateway. See the

 

following section for further details.

 

• The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the values

 

used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Addresses to DHCP

 

clients. This range also determines the number of DHCP clients

 

supported.

 

See the following section for further details on using DHCP.

 

 

DHCP

What DHCP Does

A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server allocates a valid IP address to a DHCP Client (PC or device) upon request.

•The client request is made when the client device starts up (boots).
