Configuration
Local LAN
Local LAN Configuration Screen
The LAN interface must be configured correctly to match the network it's connected to.
Fields
IP Address
The IP address of AVA-E on your LAN. The default IP Address is 192.168.0.1.
Subnet Mask
A subnet mask is a bit mask applied against the IP address. It specifies which portion of the IP address
is the subnet identifier and which portion is the host identifier. For example, many subnets have a
mask of 255.255.255.0. This means the first 24 bits of the address is the subnet identifier and the last 8
bits is the host identifier.
This field is not used if DHCP Client has been enabled. The subnet mask
will be assigned by the DHCP server.
Default Gateway
The Gateway specifies the address of the gateway router on the local subnet. Packets destined for a
host not on the local subnet are forwarded to the gateway router. If your LAN uses a router, enter the
IP Address of the Router. Otherwise, leave this value set to 0.0.0.0.
This field is not used if DHCP
Client has been enabled. The DHCP server will assign the IP address.
IP Port
Select any desired IP port. All AVA-E units that will communicate with each other in your application
must use the same IP port.
Ethernet Mode
This option allows you to control the Ethernet speed and duplex. In
Auto
mode, the Ethernet
controller will automatically negotiate the speed and half/full duplex with the connected device. This is
the preferred setting. However, for compatibility reasons you may need to force operation to one of the
other settings. Make sure the connected device supports the mode you select. Keep in mind that hubs
do not support full-duplex operation.
