B. Configuring network settings
The Lava
displays Ether Link information in a
Windows Explorer-like interface. Any Lava Ether Links that are
discovered on your network are displayed in the "Ether-Links Near
Me" branch of the "My Ether Link Network" tree.
Ether Link devices installed on your network will need unique IP
addresses. These can be set by using either the
a web browser, or a Telnet client.
The factory default network settings for the Ether-Serial Link are:
IP address:
192.168.0.35
Subnet mask:
255.255.255.0
Gateway address: 0.0.0.0
Name:
[empty]
Workgroup:
[empty]
DHCP detection:
disabled

Before Proceeding:
The Ether-Serial Link is factory preset with an IP address of
192.168.0.35. If this IP address cannot be used on the network (it may already
in use, for instance), do not initially connect the Ether-Serial Link to the
network. Instead, either:
1) connect the Ether-Serial Link to a network segment that is not already
using the Ether-Serial Link default IP address for another device or,
2) connect the Ether-Serial Link directly to a host PC using an Ethernet
crossover cable.
Follow the procedure described in the "Configuring network settings" section
of this manual to set the IP address to a usable address for the network onto
which the Ether-Serial Link will be installed.
