IP Configuration

DHCP Client : Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When the DHCP Client
function is enabled, the industrial switch will be assigned an IP address from the
network DHCP server. The default IP address will be replaced by the assigned IP
address on DHCP server. After users click Apply, a popup dialog shows up. It is to
inform the user that when the DHCP client is enabled, the current IP will lose and
the user should find the new IP on the DHCP server

IP Address: Assign the IP address for the industrial switch. With the DHCP Client
function enabled, the switch is configured as a DHCP client and users doesn
‘t
need to assign the IP address that is assigned by the DHCP server. The default IP
is 192.168.16.1 or the user has to assign an IP address manually when DHCP
Client is disabled.

Subnet Mask: Assign the subnet mask to the IP address. If the DHCP Client
function is disabled, the user has to assign the subnet mask manually.

Gateway: Assign the network gateway for the switch. If the DHCP Client function
is disabled, the user has to assign the gateway manually. The default gateway is
192.168.16.254.

DNS1: The abbreviation of Domain Name Server
—an Internet service that
translates domain names into IP addresses. The domain name is in alphabetic
order, which is easy to be remembered. The Internet is based on IP address.
Therefore, every time you use a domain name, a DNS service must translate the
name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name
www.net.com might translate to 192.168.16.1.

DNS2: The backup for DNS1. When DNS1 cannot function, DNS2 will then
replace DNS1.

When finished, click Apply to have the configuration take effect.
