Subject to error and alteration
3.3 IP assignment using ARP
command
Requirements
This method can only be used if the device does not already
have an IP address, i.e. the entry is 0.0.0.0. To change an IP
address, use one of the other methods described in this section
or use the configuration menu over web based management. If
the device has any other value, this access is disabled.
When the factory setting is in effect as well as after a manual
changeover from
static
to
DHCP
, the method for assigning
the IP described in this section functions only after a delay of
approx. 2 minutes after a reset or after power-up.
This method does
not
work across networks, e.g. through
routers. This means the PC and device used for assigning must
be connected to the same physical network segment. Only IP
addresses whose Net-ID is identical to that of the assigning
computer can be assigned.
1
To avoid unintended changes to the IP address, the
DHCP client of the Com-Server is automatically deactivated
when configuring using a static ARP entry.
Step 1
Read off the Ethernet address of the device from the sticker on
the side of the housing.
