Web Configuration Using DHCP
This method requires that your network implement DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol), usually on a server or network access device such as a router that dynamically
allows devices to join the network without pre-configuration. It also assumes that you will
have easy access to your network’s DHCP log, since you will need to know the IP
address of the unit to complete the configuration over your Web browser. (If you are
unsure of how to access your network’s DHCP log, contact your System Administrator for
details.) If the unit is powered on and connected to the network via LAN port on the rear
panel, it will automatically attempt to lease an IP address using DHCP. Before you can
begin the configuration process, you will need to access the DHCP log from your file
server or other device that acts as the DHCP server on the network. A simple DHCP log
looks similar to the following:
The information displayed for your own network may vary significantly from the data
displayed in the image, but should supply (at minimum) three essential details:
IP
address
,
MAC address
, and device (or machine) name for the computers and other
devices connected to your network. The values for the SVxx41HDIE tested above are as
follows:
IP Address:
192.168.22.4
