Hardware Installation
Ethernet Connections
iBoot supports 10/100 Ethernet using unshielded twisted pair (Cat 5) cabling.
Two network jacks, with built-in hub are provided. They are auto-sensing for
10/100 and Uplink/Downlink. A Link LED next to each indicates when the
connection to the network is properly established. The built-in hub allows
one cable from the wiring closet to be used for both iBoot and the device it is
powering (or any other device). This greatly simplifies installation. Use of
both network jacks is optional.
Note: iBoot supports DHCP. If your network uses a DHCP server, it will
automatically assign an IP address when iBoot is firs powered up on the
network. If you do not use DHCP there are several other methods of
assigning an IP address. Please read the Configuration Section on page 8
for more details.
