DHCP radio buttons
The
DHCP On
on the previous page,
4
) directs the matrix
switcher to ignore any entered IP addresses and to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the network is DHCP capable). The
DHCP Off
radio button turns DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator to determine if DHCP is
appropriate.
IP Address field
The
IP Address
field (
5
) contains the IP address of the connected matrix switcher. This
value is encoded in the blink memory of the matrix switcher.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric octets separated by dots
(periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3 digits
total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other
equipment, you should ask your network administrator for a new, valid address.
NOTE:
IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system
administrators should change IP addresses.
Gateway IP Address field
The
Gateway IP Address
field (
6
) identifies the address of the gateway to the mail server
to be used if the matrix switcher and the mail server are not on the same subnet.
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.
Subnet Mask field
The
Subnet Mask
field (
7
) is used to determine whether the matrix switcher is on the same
subnet as the mail server when you are subnetting. For more information, see
