4.2
Initial assignment of an IP address
Configuration options
An initial IP address for a SCALANCE W700 cannot be assigned using Web Based
Management (WBM) or the Command Line Interface (CLI) over Telnet because these
configuration tools require that an IP address already exists.
The following options are available to assign an IP address to an unconfigured device
currently without an IP address:
●
DHCP (default)
●
Primary Setup Tool
●
STEP 7
●
NCM PC
Note
When the product ships and following "Restore Factory Defaults and Restart", DHCP is
enabled. If a DHCP server is available in the local area network, and this responds to the
DHCP request of a SCALANCE W700, the IP address, subnet mask and gateway are
assigned automatically when the device first starts up. " Restore Memory Defaults and
Restart" does not delete an IP address assigned either by DHCP or by the user.
