Configuring IP Host Parameters

IPmux-11 can be managed by a network management station, which is located on the LAN connected to the one of the unit’s Ethernet ports. In order to establish a proper connection, it is necessary to configure the following: host IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, its trap, read and write communities. In addition, you can enable or disable DHCP client of the device.

Configuring DHCP Client

To facilitate integration of a new device into a DHCP IP network, if no IP address has been manually configured, IPmux-11 automatically requests one from the DHCP server upon booting. IPmux-11 is shipped with the DHCP client set to Enable.
