6.5 Network con fi guration
Description
The MCM-50 can be connected to a network allowing it to be accessed from and controlled by a device within the same (local)
network. The network connection can be used for following:
• fi le transfer;
• remote control;
• MCM-50 fi rmware upgrade;
• debug logging;
• debugging.
Two types of network con fi guration can be set:
• Private subnet: unique fi xed IP addresses are used;
• DHCP network: the MCM-50 is connected to a DHCP network where IP addresses are assigned automatically.
Network type Description
Fixed IP Manually assign an IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway address.
• Set the IP address to the desired value. It identi fi es the MCM-50 location on the local
network. The IP address must be unique within the local subnet.
• Set the Subnet Mask as appropriate for the local subnet.
• Set the Default Gateway to the IP address of the local router on the same local
network as this will be used to forward traf fi c to destinations beyond the local network.
If there is no router on the MCM-50 local network then set this fi eld to any unique IP
address on the local network.
DHCP Enabling DHCP is meant for automatic IP address assignment.
A DHCP network lets network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment
of IP addresses in an organization’s network. This is done by a DHCP server in the same
network. The DHCP server must be up and running at any time.
Depending on the lease time, a new IP address can be assigned to the MCM-50 on a
regular base.
