Note:
The LAN connected computer must have an IP address in the same
network range (192.168.0.xxx) as the console server. If this is not
convenient, you can use the
ARP Ping command to set the IP address
(refer
User Manual or online FAQ for details). The console server also
has its DHCP client enabled by default, so it will automatically accept any
network IP address assigned by any DHCP server on your network – and
will then respond at both 192.168.0.1 and its DHCP address.
