IP address
The IP address can be set to any value in the
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format.
Normally, the network administrator specifies the
IP address that is to be set here. If DHCP is acti-
vated, the setting made here has no effect and
the BCL 558
i
is set to the values that it obtains
from the DHCP server.
0.0.0.0
Gateway
The gateway address can be set to any value in
the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format.
The BCL 558
i
communicates with participants in
other subnets via the gateway. Splitting the read
application over multiple subnets is rather
uncommon; the setting of the gateway address,
thus, usually has no meaning.
0.0.0.0
Net mask
The net mask can be set to any value in the
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format.
Usually, the BCL 558
i
is used in a private Class
C network and the default setting can be
accepted without change.
Attention
: It is possible to enter any values for
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Only the values 255 or 000 are
permissible for xxx, however. If other values are
set, an error message appears upon restart of the
BCL 558
i
.
0.0.0.0
DHCP
activated
Off/On
If DHCP is activated, the BCL 558
i
draws its set-
tings for IP address, gateway and net mask from
a DHCP server. The manual settings made above
have no effect, but are retained and are again
active if DHCP is deactivated.
On
BootP
activated
Off/On
If BootP is activated, the BCL 558
i
draws its set-
tings for IP address, gateway and net mask from
a BootP server. The manual settings made above
have no effect, but are retained and are again
active if BootP is deactivated.
