Configuration
Image 3.4: Network settings
Notee!
▼
The configuration program communicates through UDP-Broadcasts via the port
3216. With OfficeMaster this also works through interposed switches, while
routers usually will not forward the Broadcast-Messages.
The mode activated on shipment of OfficeMaster Gate is DHCP-Client. Possible modes of operation are DH -
CP-Server (IPv4 only), DHCP-Client and static.
DHCP-Server (IPv4)
The DHCP-Server mode is only useful for OfficeMaster Gate, if OfficeMaster Gate is connected to a host com -
puters network card via cross cable and when this network card is run in DHCP-Client mode.
DHCP-Client (IPv4)
This is the standard setting of OfficeMaster Gate. In this mode of operation it is assumed, that there is a DH -
CP-Server existent in the network, which will assign the controller with an IP address and every other required val -
ue. OfficeMaster Gate registers itself under the name that is shown in the first slot of the IP configuration program.
If the DHCP-Server automatically initiates a DNS refresh then OfficeMaster Gate can be contacted directly under
that name in the network.
Static (IPv4)
Is the network run without a DHCP-Server then OfficeMaster Gate needs to get a static IP address, a subnetwork
mask, a gateway address (optional) as well as the address(es) of the DNS Server(s) assigned to it.
A Domain Server Name (DNS) has to be assigned, when the target systems are addressed via FQDN (Fully
Qualified Domain Name). Because these can, on occasion, malfunction, a alternative DNS should be configured as
DNS2.
