6 PNEG-1720 Vision WatchDog Network Setup
At first, neither DHCP or Static is selected. Choose one or the other depending on how you would like to
setup the WatchDog’s network parameters. If “Static IP” is selected, the following fields are displayed for
entry: IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DNS 1 and DNS 2.
Figure 1D depicts these entries.
Figure 1D Enter Static IP Parameters
Note that all fields are required when using the Static IP option. If you are missing any of the addresses,
contact your service provider and they will be able to give you the missing information.
Once you have chosen the setup that you would like, click “Apply Settings”. After clicking the button you
will be redirected to a page that counts down from ninety (90) seconds. This is changing the board’s
configuration and resetting it so the changes will take effect. The network scripts only execute on boot,
so the WAN port on the board needs to be connected to the modem/router on boot.
After the timer expires, you will be redirected back to the Network Status screen on Page 5 . If the page
does not display the addresses correctly, make sure the red LED on the WatchDog board is ON and then
refresh the web page.
