Exception: Initial configuration in case of DHCP mode
DHCP mode during initial configuration
While booting in DHCP mode, an according server assigns an IP address to the CS141 device. This IP address can be found
comfortable by using the freeware tool Netfinder.
Therefore, it is easy to identify the device by the MAC address shown by Netfinder and the address label glued on the CS141
device:
The function open device opens a separate web browser and inserts the IP address automatically.
After login, it is possible to access network settings and change the IP address. after rebooting the device with manual mode
setting, new IP address setting is active. By switching back to DHCP mode, these settings are completely ignored and the
CS141 falls back to server-assigned address.
The advantage is as many CS141 into the network at the same time without much effort, which are immediately accessible
without the possibility of an address conflict. The disadvantage is the fact that in DHCP mode the IP addresses can change
dynamically, which means that higher-level or docked shutdown solutions may no longer be able to access or output errors.
