1. Open the
User Settings

Menu/User Settings
on the
Home
page (see
Figure 2.64 on page 2-85 ).
2. Select the
Network Setup
option (left-side of the screen) to display related information and
associated parameters on the right-side of the screen. (see Figure 2.65 on page 2-85 ).
3. Enter the following parameters (where applicable):
•
Mac Address
- Displays a number that serves as unique network adapter identifier. This
is set by the manufacturer and is displayed for informational purposes only (cannot be
user set). It may be necessary to use this number to allow the AUI to access your
network.
•
DHCP or Static IP
- Defines whether the
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
Default Gateway
,
Default Nameserver
and
Alternate Nameserver
will be provided manually (
Static IP
)
or automatically by the access point (i.e., a router) through
DHCP
. In either case, the
access point must be configured with the correct settings, which match the settings on
the AUI in order for the AUI to access the network. Your parameter selection affects
other parameter entries. If
Static IP
was selected, enter the
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
and
Default Gateway
.
• IP Address
- displays unique numerical network identifier for the transmitter.
•
Subnet Mask
- Masks an IP address, and divides the IP address into network address
and host address.
•
Default Gateway
- Defines the address of the network access point.
•
Default Nameserver
- Address that identifies the DNS host. The DNS (Domain Name
System) translates internet domain and host names to IP addresses. DNS automatically
converts the name typed into a web browser address bar to the IP addresses of web
servers hosting those sites.
•
Alternate Nameserver
-
Redirects the name server.
Note:
Nautel recommends that the following settings be entered/vetted by a qualified Network
