Setting I/P Address
Consult your Network Administrator to determine the appropriate IP address.
The IP address can be set in any of four ways:
1. Automatically from a DHCP Server
2. Web Browser via the Set-up Page
3. ibootrst.exe Program from Dataprobe
4. ARP / Ping
iBoot comes with factory installed IP address
192.168.1.254
. and ready to
accept a new IP address from a DHCP Server. If you network has a DHCP
server, it will automatically assign an IP address to iBoot the first time it is
connected and powered up.
1. Setting the IP address from a DHCP Server
A DHCP server will automatically assign an IP address (dynamic address) as
well as Subnet Mask and Gateway to the iBoot. If you power up iBoot
without a fixed (static) IP address, the DHCP server will be able to assign an
IP address. This is the factory default setting for iBoot. Once an IP address
is assigned, you must check the DHCP server to see what address is
assigned to iBoot.
If you set the IP address using another method, the address becomes static.
To return iBoot to dynamic addressing using DHCP, change the IP address,
using the web browser to 0.0.0.0
2. Setting the IP address using Web Browser
To set the IP address using a Web Browser, connect the ethernet connection
to your local network and apply power to iBoot.
Open your browser and access iBoot by entering the default (
192.168.1.254
)
or current IP address into your browser's Address window. Enter the
password (the factory default is
PASS
). Click on Setup and follow the
instructions on Page 13.
