5.10.2.3. Network Setting
Use this tab to modify the device's host name and configure the device's IP address.
By default, the device's host name equals the device's MAC address.
The MAC address is also used as device host name by the IPA Manager software. To
rename a device, enter a name (e. g. “TX1”) into the hostname edit box. Press the
"Save" button to save the new host name. The host name is persistent and kept until
the device is forced back to factory defaults.
The IP address can be set to either "DHCP" or "Manual":
l
Select "DHCP" to receive the IP address from a DHCP server or to be auto-
assigned an address within the 169.254.X.X range, in case there is no DHCP
server on the network.
l
Select "Manual" to set a static IP address (IPV4 address, subnet mask and gateway
address).
Press "Save" to save the new IP address. New IP mode settings are stored in non-
volatile memory and kept until the device is forced back to factory defaults.
Note: Special attention is required, when assigning a manual IP address. The address
has to be both unique and reachable. Any mistake when entering the IP address,
subnet mask or gateway address can render the device unreachable.
