6 Start-up
The SAM Gateway Configurator tool (see the 'Configuration with SAM Gateway Configura -
tor tool' section) installed on a computer as well as a patch cable are required to start up the
SAM HOME Gateway.
In the delivered state, the SAM HOME Gateway is configured for communication over the
Ethernet interface including an automatic function to switch between
DHCP client and DHCP
server. The DHCP client function remains active for around one minute after the device is
switched on. If the SAM HOME Gateway does not receive an IP address from a DHCP server
during this period, the device starts to function as a DHCP server with the configured IP
address (default setting: 192.168.55.2).
