5.4.5.3 IP Configuration
The currently logged in user has to have "admin" permission to access the IP
Configuration functionality, where the network setup of the device can be
modified.
If the device is intended to obtain the IP address, the netmask and the
gateway from a DHCP server within the network, check the DHCP check
box. Then, the values entered in the fields "Static IP Address", "Netmask",
and "Gateway" will not be considered after a reboot of the device. If DHCP is
not checked, at least the fields "Static IP Address" and "Netmask" have to
contain valid entries.
"Gateway", "Nameserver 1", and "Nameserver 2" (if required) are to be
specified by their IP addresses, the "Nameserver" entries are used for the
resolution of the "Timeserver" fields, only.
The "Time Server" fields are used to specify one or two timeservers either
via full-qualified domain name or via IP address.
To specify the time zone, an appropriate string is to be entered in the field
"Time Zone". The list of valid entries is provided in chapter 13.
The three buttons at the bottom of the window are used for the handling of
the data entered above. The Cancel button is used for discarding changes
possibly applied. Save and Reboot (in Local Mode, only!) downloads the
data to the CPU module to be stored there permanently and reboots the
device. A click on the button Exit closes the functionality and initiates the
return to the Setup Tab.
