WLAN Address Settings
The WLAN interface can be configured by using this form. Settings
can be saved by clicking the Save Settings button located below
the form.
DHCP:
If the IP uses DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol),
the PCAN-Gateway IP address, Subnet mask, and gateway address
are assigned automatically. Otherwise, you must manually enter the
information. Switch DHCP on if required (Enable).
Note:
DHCP is not recommended, because it is necessary to
know the IP address of the device to access the configuration
website. Furthermore the IP address may change after a restart
of the device or the DHCP server. In this case the existing
routes won't work.
IP Address:
Enter here the IP address (IPv4) of the WLAN interface. It
should be noted that only values from 0 to 255 may be used and
certain address ranges are reserved.
In the first field, enter a value less than 224, since addresses
starting from this value are reserved for Multicast messages
