Configuring the DHCP / TFTP Server
Figure 7: Assigning an IP and a profile to a given modem (by MAC address)
Note that the MAC address must be typedin the following format: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
(where x is a hexadecimal). You cannot assign the same IP address to two different
modems running at the same time.
Once you have entered all the modems in the list, connect the device you want to
operate as Master to your computer and connect the others via CableLAN.
If everything is properly configured, the Master will request an IP address first, and
then each Slave will also request an IP address. The DHCP server reports the time
and date of the last request in the static leases list.
If any of the modems does not get an IP address, the possible causes are:
• The MAC address was mistyped
• The modem does not have the factory-default configuration
• The modem is not linked to the Master
If none of the Slaves obtains an IP address, the probable cause is that the Master
was not properly configured. If the Master modem does not become Master, the
Slaves will not be able to find a network signal to link to.
