7.The Serial Device Server’s IP address must be configured before a network connection is available. If your network offers DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the Serial Device Server will automatically search for a DCHP server upon power up and obtain an IP address. If your network does not offer DHCP, a static (fixed) IP address must be assigned (see your system administrator for assistance). If you use DHCP, make sure that the length of the DHCP lease is adequate so that the IP address of the Serial Device Server does not change.
