field is not configurable (grayed out).

match the setting of other devices on the network (for example,
255.255.255.0).

must match the setting of other devices on the network (for example,

Enable BootP When this box is checked, BOOTP is enabled in the adapter and will
ignore the IP address set in the General tab. When unchecked, the
controller uses the set IP address. This is another method to enable/
disable BOOTP in the adapter. For this example, leave this box unchecked.
