CONFIGURING NETWORK (IP) SETTINGS
The fastest way to set basic network parameters is by using the front panel

Note:
If you prefer, you can get started by following a Quick Setup script on the
command line interface using Telnet or SSH, or by connecting a terminal directly to
the console (RS-232) port.The web page interface also provides a Quick Setup page.
