Known PCs

This lists all current entries. Data displayed is name (IP Address) type.

 

The "type" indicates whether the PC is connected to the LAN.

 

 

PC Properties

 

Name

If adding a new PC to the list, enter its name here. It is best if this

 

matches the PC's "hostname".

 

 

IP Address

Select the appropriate option:

 

Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob-

 

tain an IP address automatically"). VRT-311 / VRT-311S will

 

allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP

 

address could change, but normally won't.

 

DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set

 

to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that VRT-311 /

 

VRT-311S will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC.

 

Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the

 

other fields must match VRT-311 / VRT-311S 's IP address.

 

Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static)

 

IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must

 

be configured to use this IP address.)
