Network setting
To configure the LAN port, you can choose between two options:

Get an IP address automatically (DHCP
) (see “A” area) : the address is
automatically acquired when switching on the VMU-C EM from a DHCP
server, which must exist inside the network the device is connected to.
The IP address will be dynamic and not known in advance. In this case
you can reach VMU-C from within the same network by typing on the
browser the Machine Name assigned to it (e.g. VMU-C01).

Use the following IP address
(Static routing) (see “B” area):
you need to
manually specify an IP address along with a network mask and a default
gateway.
In the absence of a network administrator who can provide the correct
network parameters, assign an address belonging to the same class as
those of the other devices existing on the same network, and indicate
“255.255.255.0” as the network mask.
The default gateway is only mandatory if you plan to access VMU-C EM
through the Internet using the LAN connection; in this case, indicate in this
field the IP address of the ADSL router.
