Setting the IP address of the ChemWeb Server

Setting the IP address of the ChemWeb Server with DHCP

The network administrator must reserve a fixed IP address at the DHCP server. For this purpose he needs the MAC address (see label at the ChemWeb Server).

The entry box “Use DHCP” must be clicked and the settings must be confirmed by clicking “Yes”. Now the ChemWeb Server must be restarted. Then the DHCP server will assign the IP address, the network mask and, if applicable, the Gateway address to the ChemWeb Server.

Connection via Internet

As soon as dialing into the Internet and an information e-mail have been initiated by the following events, the ChemWeb Server can be accessed in the Internet via the IP address which is notified in the e-mail:

-Manual dialing by clicking “Connect ISP” (see chapter 4.1.6)

-Connection by a daily information mail (see chapter 4.1.3)

-Connection by events (see chapter 4.1.4)

To access the ChemWeb Server using a laptop computer/PC, a connection to the Internet must be established before via any provider and any type of port (analog, ISDN, DSL ...). The ChemWeb Server can be reached via the IP address notified in the e-mail at least for the duration which is defined under “Mail Configuration”.
