Static IP address settings

KickStart will look on the network for a free IP address. Although this will
normally be successful, there is a chance that a conflict will occur later. For
example, if a computer using the suggested IP address is currently turned off
or not connected to the network, a conflict will occur when that computer
comes back online. In this case you will have to reset the Access Point and
run KickStart again and reconfigure the IP address in accordance with
information provided by your network administrator.
Once the IP address is set manually or otherwise, click Next to continue to
the next screen. The screen Set Gateway of Wireless Device appears. In this
screen you can install the Gateway address of the wireless device. Setting a
Gateway is optional. The Gateway address must be on the same network
segment as the IP Address. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.2.33,
the gateway should be 192.168.2.1. Note: If you leave the gateway field
blank, the gateway will be set to xxx.xxx.xxx.1 where the x’s represent the
network segment address.
Click Next to continue to the next screen, Changing IP Settings.
