Static IP address: An IP address is set by users.
DHCP: An IP address is automatically assigned by a server. There must be a server existing on a

DHCP
A DHCP server is automatically requested to assign an IP address, a
subnet mask, and a default gateway.

more information about assigning an IP address. The default IP address of DVP-FEN01 is
192.168.1.5.

A subnet mask is an important parameter for setting a subnet, and is used to judge whether the IP
