3.2. Management Interface Network Configuration Considerations
3.2.1. IDU Network Configurations
The IDU supports manual (static) network configuration settings (DHCP is not
supported at this time). All IDUs are factory configured with default static network
settings as stated in Section 3.1. These static Network Settings can changed by
changing the entries on the System / Network Settings page of the GUI interface
(see Section 2.1.13.2). If the IDU is to be connected to a LAN or routed network,
the installer should take care to ensure (e.g., via PING) that no other node exists
on the network with the same IP address.
3.2.2. Laptop or Management Computer Network Configurations
The appropriate network configuration settings of the management computer
depend on the network environment. If both IDU and computer exist on a routed
network supported by a DHCP server, the laptop may be configured to obtain an
IP address automatically, as shown in Figure 30 below.
