4.1. IP configuration
The UPSLink requires a valid IP address to operate within the user’s network environment. If the IP
address is not readily available, contact the system administrator to obtain a valid IP address for the
UPSLink. Please note that the UPSLink requires a unique IP address to connect to the user’s
network.
The users may choose one of three Internet protocols in setting up the UPSLink IP address: i.e.,
•
Static IP
•
DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
•
PPPoE
(Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)
The UPSLink is initially defaulted to
DHCP
mode.
Table 4-1
shows the configuration parameters for all
three IP configurations.
