HAPI MKII User Manual
Network Menu (Setup)
Device Name: Name of the Hapi unit. This name will be broadcast across the network and will
be seen in applications such as the MT Discovery tool or ANEMAN. The Hapi
unit name can be changed from the Web control access Network page (see
section below for all details)

mechanism (address range 169.254.xx.xx if no DHCP server is present)

Apply & Reboot:
Once changes have been made to this section, you must press this button to
save the settings and power cycle the Hapi unit
Note:
Hapi has no DHCP-server capability neither does the Merging PCIe Ethernet
Controller Card NET-MSC-GBEX1.
By default
the Hapi IP setting is set to “Auto” configuration mode which gives
an address in the range 169.254.xxx.xxx if no DHCP server is present on the
network. Users are free to put a DHCP server in their RAVENNA network with
a customized address range and the Hapi would get an IP address from this
server. Note that our recommended RAVENNA switches are configured with
DHCP disabled.
Merging recommend the Hapi to be configured in “Auto” mode and the Merging
PCIe Ethernet Controller Card NET-MSC-GBEX1 to also be configured with
“Internet Protocol Version 4” with “Obtain an IP automatically”.
