What You Need to Know
Hardware Address
You need to know the unit’s hardware address (also known as MAC address). It is on the
product label, in the format: 00-20-4a-XX-XX-XX, where the XXs are unique numbers
assigned to the product.
Hardware Address
: 00-20-4a-_____-_____-_____
IP Address
Your WiPort must have a unique IP address on your network. By default, the device is
DHCP-enabled and automatically assigned an IP address (on DHCP-enabled networks).
If assigning a static IP address, make note of it. The systems administrator generally
provides the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway. The IP address must be within a
valid range, unique to your network, and in the same subnet as your PC.
