Network Setup
IP (IP Address)
The IP address setup is in the form of decimal dotted notation. The selection of an IP should
come from the person who administrates the network. The current IP selection is static. A dynamic IP
setting using DHCP is planned for future enhancement.
Default:
Encoder - 192.168.0.253
Decoder - 192.168.0.254
Example command:
IP 192.168.0.10
(sets IP address to 192.168.0.10)
IPMASK (IP Subnet Mask)
The IP Subnet Mask is in the form of decimal dotted notation. The selection of an IP subnet
mask should come from the network administrator. It is used to represent the number of bits in the
current IP subnet.
Default: 255.255.255.0
Example command:
IPMASK 255.255.240.0
GATEWAY <ip-address> [<ip-subnet address> <subnet mask>]
The GATEWAY command can have either one or three parameters. The first parameter is the IP
address of the host that is the gateway. Optionally you may include the IP address and the subnet mask of
the subnet you want to route through the gateway. You can program up to five gateway entries.
Default: No Gateways
Example command:
GATEWAY 192.168.0.1
The following example indicates that all packets sent to hosts on the 62.41.1.0.xxx subnet should be
routed though the gateway at 192.168.0.2
Example command:
GATEWAY 192.168.0.2 62.41.1.0 255.255.255.0
