Configuring the Network Settings
In general, network settings include the following parameters:
●
An IP address
: Each ET-7X00/PET-7X00 on the network must have a unique IP address.
●
A default gateway
: A gateway (or router) is a system that is used to connect a network
with one or more other networks.
●
A subnet mask
: The subnet mask indicates which portion of the IP address that is used to
identify the local network or subnet.
There are two methods of configuring the network settings:
●
Dynamic configuration
: The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network
application protocol that automatically assigns an IP address to a device.
●
Manual configuration
: In the absence of DHCP, ET-7X00/PET-7X00 modules can be
manually configured with an IP address, mask, and a gateway.
