Address
Subnet
Mask
The Subnet Mask is a bit mask that identifies the network portion of the IP address, allowing the RPC to
determine whether to send a packet directly to the client or to a gateway. The Subnet Mask consists of
four bytes, each byte ranging from 0 to 255.
This parameter must be programmed before the MSP
can be accessed through the network
.
The IP address is the network address assigned by your network manager for your network. The IP
Address consists of four bytes, each byte ranging from 0 to 255.
This parameter must be programmed
before the MSP can be accessible via the network.
NOTE:
There should be no active connections while configuring the MSP. The unit should be
reset upon completion of configuration.

network configuration options such as the IP
Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, DHCP,
