reference only.)
Host Name
Example
: If you don't want to remember this unit's IP address, you can type in a
name is this field, such as NG216G3. Once you save and reboot the unit, you
can now browse to it locally by simply typing in "NG216G3" in the address bar.

Enable DHCP

because the unit is assigned an IP address from your DHCP server. The IP
you've already assigned to the unit becomes inactive. Using DHCP means the
unit will NOT operate in a T/Mon environment.

Gateway

Remote Power Switch (AC) which machine is the gateway out of your local
network. Set to 255.255.255.255 if not using. Contact your network administrator
for this info.
Subnet Mask
A road sign to the Remote Power Switch (AC), telling it whether your packets
should stay on your local network or be forwarded somewhere else on a wide-
area network.
