[1]DHCP: Either enabled or disabled. Make sure to provide a hostname when DHCP is enabled; it is necessary to provide system identification to the DHCP host. If DHCP is disabled, you must provide a static IP address.

Note: DHCP is supported for use only with TAOS ITP at this time. If you will be using TAOS NDMP you will need to assign a static IP address to the library.

[2]Hostname: The name for the IP interface. This is used by DHCP, DNS

and other communications for name resolution. The hostname should be less than 12 characters to support DHCP and DNS naming conventions.

[3]IP address: Standard IP address. This field is not available while in DHCP mode.
