Warning
The initial IP configuration is usually done directly at the host system using the
special procedure described in Table 4-1.
Warning
Changing the network settings of the IP-KVM switch might result in losing
connection to it. In case you change the settings remotely make sure that all
the values are correct and you still have an option to access the IP-KVM
switch.
IP auto configuration
With this option you can control if the IP-KVM switch should fetch its network
settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For DHCP, select “dhcp” , and for BOOTP
select “bootp” accordingly. If you choose “none” then IP auto configuration is
disabled.
