P-971M User’s Guide

DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (computers) to obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige supports this capability by default. The Prestige acts as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignments from the actual real DHCP server to the clients.

Security and Remote Monitoring Support

Two types of system security are provided by your Prestige: Webadmin and User. Your Prestige also supports remote monitoring using SNMP.

1.2 Accessing the Web Configurator

The P-971M supports two types of web configurator logins which correspond to the two user names available from the Web Configurator: webadmin and user. Webadmin allows viewing of all the status screens, while user allows viewing of all status screens viewing except the Event Log screen.
