Changing
the
compression
card
IP
address
The
IP
address
and
communications
firmware
that
is
stored
on
the
compression
card
in
the
blade
workstation
is
used
for
communication
with
the
thin
client
only.
All
blade
workstation
compression
cards
have
Dynamic
Host
Configuration
Protocol
(DHCP)
enabled
by
default.
If
you
are
using
DHCP
on
the
network,
DHCP
assigns
an
IP
address
dynamically.
If
you
configure
the
compression
card
to
disable
DHCP,
the
compression
card
uses
the
static
network
configuration.
The
compression
card
has
the
following
default
static
network
configuration:
IP
address:
192.168.100.1
Subnet:
255.255.255.0
Gateway:
192.168.100.254
To
avoid
network
conflicts,
you
must
use
DHCP
or
change
the
default
static
IP
address
to
a
unique
IP
address
for
each
blade
workstation
compression
card.
You
also
must
create
a
unique
IP
address
for
each
thin
client.
Important:
v
Whether
you
use
DHCP
or
use
the
static
IP
address,
set
the
IP
address
of
only
one
compression
card
at
a
time,
with
only
one
new
blade
workstation
on
the
network
at
a
time.
v
I/O
modules
1
and
2
on
the
BladeCenter
unit
must
be
Ethernet-capable.
If
DHCP
is
enabled,
the
compression
card
automatically
obtains
its
IP
address
from
a
DHCP
server.
The
card
then
attempts
to
discover
a
DNS
server,
so
that
it
can
register
itself
with
a
connection
manager
or
connection
broker
for
connection
to
the
thin
client.
For
a
description
of
the
registration
process,
see
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
connection
broker
software
that
you
purchased.
Note:
The
compression
card
DNS
Discovery
Prefix
factory
setting
is
ws-broker
.
If
DHCP
is
not
enabled,
you
can
change
the
compression
card
static
IP
address
in
either
of
two
ways:
v
Using
the
blade
workstation
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program.
See
“Using
the
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program
to
change
the
compression
card
IP
address”.
v
Using
a
computer,
such
as
a
notebook
computer,
on
the
same
subnet
and
gateway
as
the
blade
workstation,
and
logging
in
to
the
blade
workstation.
You
can
connect
the
computer
to
the
network
or
directly
to
the
Ethernet-capable
I/O
module
2.

“Using
another
computer
to

card
IP
