5. Connecting to the Ethernet Port
Before connecting
a cat5 patch lead to the socket marked “ETHERNET” please take the time to
read through the following sections.
If the HPQ3 is to be installed on your company network, then there are a number of different
network configurations that must be considered before you continue.
There are four main network technologies employed in the distribution of network addresses (IP
addresses) to network devices, the HPQ3
can be configured to use any of the following:
Auto-IP
A mechanism where in the absence of a DHCP or BOOTP server on the network, network entities
can obtain their unique IP addresses by a process of arbitration between devices. If a DHCP or
BOOTP server is present on the network, Auto-IP will obtain an IP address from the server.
DHCP
Short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a server running on the network is responsible for
assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network.
BOOTP
Short for Bootstrap Protocol, an Internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its
own IP address and the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network.
Static
Each address is issued manually to each device by the network administrator.
By default the HPQ3 is configured for Auto-IP which is by far the simplest method if you are new to
networking, or are installing the HPQ3 into an existing Auto-IP or DHCP network.
If you intend to connect a HPQ3 to an existing network, then you must consult your IT
Specialist for advice on how the network assigns IP addresses.
