IPv4 Configuration
The PDU’s IPv4 IP and DNS addresses (the traditional method of specifying
IP addresses) can either be assigned dynamically (DHCP), or a fixed IP address
can be specified.
For dynamic IP address assignment, select the
Obtain IP address
automatically
radio button. (This is the default setting.)
To specify a fixed IP address, select the
Set IP address manually
radio
button and fill in the IP address with values appropriate for your network.
For automatic DNS Server address assignment, select the
Obtain DNS
Server address automatically
radio button.
To specify the DNS Server address manually, select the
Set DNS server
address manually
radio button, and fill in the addresses for the Preferred
and Alternate DNS servers with values appropriate for your network.
Note:
1. If you choose
Obtain IP address automatically
, when the device starts
up it waits to get its IP address from the DHCP server. If it hasn’t
obtained the address after one minute, it automatically reverts to its
factory default IP address (192.168.0.60.)
2. If the device is on a network that uses DHCP to assign network
addresses, and you need to ascertain its IP address, see
, page 67, for information.
3. Specifying the Alternate DNS Server address is optional.
