Creating a Direct Connection between
and PC
To establish a direct connection between
and a PC,
you must manually enter the IP address and subnet mask. A
default gateway is not required.
Additionally, the IP settings of the PC must match the IP settings of
the
for communication to be established.
PC and
must be located in the same subnet, but have
different IP addresses.
Example settings:
PC:
IP address:
10.3.3.236
Subnet mask:
255.255.240.0
:
IP address:
10.3.3.236
Subnet mask:
255.255.240.0
Explanation:
The subnet mask 255.255.240.0 indicates that the first three parts
of the IP address define the network.
The IP addresses of the two devices differ only in the final part of
the IP address, which (according to the subnet mask) defines the
device part of the IP address. Accordingly, the two devices are
located in the same network (
10.3.3.
).
PC Settings (Windows XP)
The following section provides an example of how to manually
change the IP settings in Windows XP. The procedure may differ
slightly depending on your operating system.
Attention:
Modifying network settings may prevent your PC from working
properly in the network. Please contact a network administrator
before changing the network settings!
