Address
Allows you to verify the automatically acquired IP address or manually
enter the IP address.
Enter the IP address in the format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Any number from 0
to 255 can be set for each xxx in the IP and gateway addresses.
However, the initial xxx cannot be 127 or any number from 224 to 255.
For subnet masks, each xxx must be one of the following numbers: 0,
128, 192, 224, 240, 248, 252, 254, and 255. (See *2 on P. 214.)
Important
• Make sure that you set the IP address correctly. Setting the wrong
address can cause problems on the network.
• If the correct address is not entered in the subnet mask (e.g. 0 is set
in bits midway), the previous setting is restored to even if you press
the <Settings> button after the number is set. You cannot configure
other items until the correct value is set.
• Set the gateway address only when it must be clearly indicated. This
setting is not required in environments where the gateway address is
automatically set.
