Description
1
DHCP Enable
(Dynamic host
configuration
protocol)
Select or Clear
When selected the PRORXD is given an IP address
by an external DHCP server.
In managed networks which use DHCP address
allocation this must be selected. In networks that
are manually managed (or do not have a DHCP
server), users can give an IP address manually.
2
IP Address
Example:
192.168.2.65
If the PRORXD is not automatically acquiring its IP
address through a DHCP server then a fixed IP
address needs to be assigned to the unit
Type an IP address for this PRORXD in the IP
address text box. You can select a class of network
of your choosing.
3
Network Mask
Example:
255.255.255.0
The network mask allows a network administrator
to divide a network into smaller more useful
subnets to stop too many numbers of IP packets
being routed through the network. This is usually
defined by the network administrator.
Type a subnet mask in the Network mask text box.
4
Gateway
Example:
192.168.2.254
A default gateway is used by a host when an IP
packet's destination address belongs to someplace
external to the local subnet. The default gateway
address is usually an interface belonging to the
LAN’s border router.
Note: For correct streaming operation, a correct
Gateway address in the IP subnet range must be
set manually or through DHCP.
5
MTU
1344 – 1500
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) - This should
be set to the same value as the network supports.
For normal LAN this would be 1500.
