After a few seconds this display will be shown:
DHCP
Available in Windows
NT and UNIX. Recom-
mended method on
Windows NT networks
Operates on the entire network and allows for automatic but tempo-
rary assignment of IP addresses from a central pool. DHCP will, when
enabled, cause the selected host to automatically allocate and down-
load a free IP address, default router address and subnet mask to the
requesting AXIS 7100. It also provides validation data that defines how
long the IP addresses will remain valid.
This is the recommended method on networks, since it allows a number
of parameters to be set automatically, provided the DHCP server has
been configured to do so.
ARP
Available in Windows
95/98,
Windows NT, UNIX and
OS/2,
Does NOT work over
routers.
Requires the IP address for each new device to be downloaded individ-
ually.
RARP
Available in UNIX only. Downloads the IP address to each device automatically. It requires a
RARP daemon on your system and operates within a single network
segment only.
BOOTP
Available in UNIX only. Similar to RARP, but operates on the entire network. It requires a
BOOTP daemon on your system.
The Administrator can disallow this function from the web-based
administration pages. For details refer to “
User Options
” on page 41.
