DHCP on an Existing Network
Another easy way to get your Sirius system operating is to connect Sirius routers to an
existing network configured with a DHCP server. When the units reset during power up,
they will see the DHCP server and automatically be given compatible IP network settings. If
auto discovery is configured on a computer on that network, that computer will be able to
find and control the Sirius router via a web browser (see below).
Computer Auto Discovery
Computers can support network auto discovery, which makes the network configuration
process easy. Two methods of connecting using this technique are described below.

configure that Sirius device.
Windows PC Configuration using UPnP

service is enabled (refer to your Microsoft Windows documentation), you can control Sirius
routers by simply selecting one from a device list:
