STEP 1—set up the connected devices
Set up those Ethernet-enabled devices connected to
the EDS for which you would like IP addresses to be
assigned automatically. The devices must be
configured to
obtain
their IP address automatically.
The devices’ configuration utility should include a
setup page that allows you to choose an option
similar to
Obtain an IP address automatically
.
For example, Windows’
TCP/IP Properties
window
is shown at the right. Although your device’s
configuration utility may look quite a bit different,
this figure should give you some idea of what to look
for.
You also need to decide to which of the EDS’s ports
your Ethernet-enabled devices will be connected.
You will need to set up each of these ports separately,
as described in the following step.
STEP 2
Configure the EDS’s
Set device IP
function, either from the Console utility or from the Web
Browser interface. In either case, you simply need to enter the
Desired IP
for each port that needs
to be configured.
STEP 3
Be sure to activate your settings before exiting.
When using the Web Browser interface, activate by clicking
Activate
.
When using the Console utility, activate by first highlighting the
Activate
menu option, and
then press
Enter
. You should receive the
Set device IP settings are now active! (Press any
key to continue)
message.
