IP Configuration

Overview
3.4.1
An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number that
devices use in order to identify and communicate with each other on a
network utilizing the Internet Protocol standard. An IP address consists
of 32 bits. They are commonly expressed as a dotted quad, four octets
(8 bits) separated by periods.
IP addresses are divided into two parts:
Network address
●
identifies a whole network or subnet
-
Host address
●
identifies a particular device’s connection or interface to that
-
network
This division is used to control how traffic is routed in and among
IP networks. It is the Subnet Mask that decides which part of the IP
address is the Subnet number and which part is the Host number.
3.4.2 IP interfaces
To connect the AlphaCom XE to your IP network, you need to enter
the IP settings for the Ethernet ports and IP route entries according
to network. You should obtain IP
addresses and IP routes from your IT
network administrator.

Subnet Mask
Example:
IP address: 10.1.5.48
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
The Subnet Mask shows that
the device with the address
10.1.5.48 belongs to subnet
10.1.5.0 and has host number
48.
If the mask is changed to
255.255.0.0, the device with
the address 10.1.5.48 will
belong to the subnet 10.1.0.0
and have host number 5.48.
