If the device is operated with a 10 Mbit/s-only hub, the link speed should be switched from
Auto Detect
to
10Mbps/Half-Duplex
. With modern 100/10 Mbit/s switches, this setting
can be left at its default.
The settings for DNS and NTP servers should be made in the IP host settings (see Section
5.2.3). In case an IP interface runs DHCP, the DNS and NTP addresses supplied by DHCP
can be seen here. Models with one Ethernet port only do not have these settings here.
Other standard protocols that are bound to the Ethernet interface are FTP, Telnet, and
HTTP (Web server). By deselecting the checkbox, those protocols can be individually
disabled. The standard UDP/TCP ports can be changed in the respective protocol settings.
An example for the FTP server is shown for FTP in Figure 48. The FTP server is used for
instance to update the firmware (see Section 10.1) or to upload a new data point
configuration. Note that HTTP for the Web server can only be disabled on the console
interface or by using the device configuration of the Configurator.
Figure 48: FTP server configuration on the Ethernet port.
5.2.3 IP Host Configuration
The L-DALI models, which provide more than one IP interface possess a separate
IP Host
tab for editing all common host settings. These settings affect all IP interfaces on the entire
device. On models with a single Ethernet port, the IP Host settings appear directly on the
Ethernet tab as shown in Figure 49.

Hostname
and
Domainname
are optional entries and can be left empty. For some DHCP
configurations it may be necessary to enter a hostname. Please contact your system
administrator on how to configure DHCP to acquire an IP address.
