Chapter 3: Configuring your Matrox Iris GT to work on a network
Automatic naming
Each Matrox Iris GT must have a unique name on the network. By default, Matrox
Iris GT automatically uses a unique network name:
The last six digits of your Matrox Iris GT’s MAC address are used as the
alphanumeric part of the network name. This ensures that each Matrox Iris GT
has a unique network name. Both the network name of your Matrox Iris GT and
its MAC address are written on stickers on your Matrox Iris GT. This automatic
name can be used instead of an IP address when you try to access your Matrox
Iris GT.
❖
Throughout the documentation
IrisName
is used whenever you should use the
name or the IP address of your Matrox Iris GT.
Note that you can change the automatic name using either the
Static network
name
field on the
Identification settings
page of Matrox Iris portal website or
with the Matrox IrisBootParams utility.
