subsections discuss each attribute’s descriptions. When all desired options are entered, check

5.3.1 DHCP Function
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a
protocol that lets network administrators manage centrally
and automate the assignment of IP (Internet Protocol)
configurations on a computer network. Select this option
if you wish to use the DHCP address services in your
network. DHCP may be “Disabled’ or ‘Enabled.”
5.3.2 Manual (Static) IP Address
Select this option to manually configure the IP address of the controller. Make sure that the
assigned IP address is in the same range of your default router address and that it is unique
to your private network.
5.3.2 Gateway IP address
If a static IP address is assigned, Enter the router address of your network in this field.
Note:
By Default, the PlatinumRAID’s
Ethernet port is preconfigured
for DHCP operation
