Setting Up the Network
Setting Up the Network
The most important part of setting up the network is assigning an IP address to the IOLAN, whether
this is a static IP address or enabling a DHCP/BOOTP-assigned IP address. You should also assign a
name to the IOLAN, to make it easier to recognize. This section deals primarily with setting the IP
address.
Using DeviceManager
To use the DeviceManager, you must first install it on a Windows
®
operating system. The
DeviceManager is able to automatically discover all IOLANs on your local network, even if they
have not yet been assigned an IP address. If routers on the network have been setup to propagate
multicasts, DeviceManager will also be able to discover IOLANs in other networks. The
DeviceManager installation wizard can be found on the CD-ROM included in the IOLAN package.
1.
Connect the IOLAN to the network.
2.
Power on the IOLAN.
3.
From the CD-ROM that was included in the IOLAN packaging, select the DeviceManager link.
4.
Click on the link under
Location
and click
Open
to automatically start the DeviceManager
installation.
5.
Install the DeviceManager by following the installation wizard. On the last window, check the

box and click the
Finish
button.
6.
When you launch the DeviceManager, it will automatically scan the local network and display
any IOLANs that it can find.
7.
Any IOLAN that does not have an IP address will be displayed as
Not Configured
, with the
Model
and

to identify the IOLAN. Highlight the IOLAN that you want to assign
an IP address to and click the
Assign IP
button.

Choose the method you want to use to assign an IP address to the IOLAN:
z
Type in the IP address that you want to assign to this IOLAN.
z
Enable the
Have the IOLAN automatically get a temporary IP address
option. This will
turn on DHCP/BOOTP, so the IOLAN will attempt to get its IP address from your
DHCP/BOOTP server. If you don’t have a DHCP/BOOTP server, DeviceManager will
temporarily assign an IP address in the range of
169.254.0.1
-
169.254.255.255
that will
be used only for the duration of the DeviceManager/IOLAN communication.
Click the
Assign IP
button.
9.
You are now ready to configure the IOLAN. Double-click the IOLAN you just configured IP
address for to open a configuration session. Type
superuser
(the factory default admin user
password) in the Login window and click
OK
.
10.
Expand the
Server Configuration
folder and select
Server
. Verify the IP address configuration.
You should also enter a name in the
Server Name
field to make the IOLAN easily identifiable.
11.
To make your edits take effect, you need to download the new configuration file and then reboot
the IOLAN. Download the configuration file to the IOLAN by selecting
Tools
,
Download
Configuration to Unit
or click the
Download All Changes
button.
12.
Reboot the IOLAN by selecting
