DHCP
The DHCP option, when enabled, allows the rack unit to automatically receive an IP address from the local DHCP
server. If DHCP is turned off, then the user must choose a valid IP address for the unit.
IP Address
The IP address for the rack unit will either be assigned to it automatically through the use of DHCP, or it must be
entered by the user. When choosing an IP address, it is critical that the address is unique; otherwise the unit will not
operate within the network properly. It is strongly recommended that the user contact their network administrator to
receive a reserved address for this purpose.
Subnet
The subnet mask identifies the portion of the IP address used as a host identifier for the subnet in which the
Quasonix rack unit participates. It is expressed in a quad-dotte
d decimal representation, just like the unit’s IP
address. The most common subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, which means that the unit’s last 8
-bit number (i.e. 0
through 255) uniquely identifies it within its sub-network.
Gateway
The Gateway address displays the Gateway network IP address. This is the address of the router that allows the
RDMS to access networks outside of the network defined by the IP Address and Subnet (the local subnet). The
Gateway address must be an address on this network. For example, if the IP Address is 192.168.100.1 and the
