Network Settings
When configuring the IP address you can select Auto or Fixed network settings. When you select
the auto network settings, the unit tries to configure the network stack from a DHCP server. If this
step fails, it may cause the unit to remain unconnected.
When selecting the fixed network settings, the unit uses the parameters you set to configure the
network. You should configure at least the IP address and the Subnet Mask. The Default Gateway
is only needed if the board needs to be accessed from outside the local subnet. The DNS Server
and Domain Name are also optional; set all optional fields to 0.0.0.0 and leave the Domain Name
blank if you do not wish to configure them.
The IP Address default setting is 192.168.10.1. The Subnet Mask default setting is 255.255.0.0. You
can discover the IP address that the unit received using the ComNet Site Control Utility (see Using
the ComNet Site Control Utility).
Note: Use caution when configuring the unit’s network parameters. Wrong parameters (such as
IP address outside the subnet) may cause the unit to lose communication with the network.
There is some protection implemented to prevent entry of invalid settings.
To set up network parameters:
1. In the left pane select the System menu, and select Network Settings.
The right pane displays the Network Setting area.
