IP addressing: DHCP or static IP
Both on-site and off-site access require AutoFlex Connect to have an IP address. The following
diagram shows examples for DHCP and static IP addresses using Wi-Fi. If you are using wired
networking, select Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
Notes for IP addressing
1.
Choose your network configuration,
DHCP
or
STATIC
addressing
2.
If your router has DHCP enabled, no settings are required in the AutoFlex Connect. If your
setup is using STATIC addressing, you need to assign a new
STATIC IP address
for your
AutoFlex Connect unit in the router.
3.
After powering on the AutoFlex Connect, go to the Network Settings page and then choose the
type of network connection,
Wi-Fi
or
Ethernet
. For Wi-Fi, enter the
SSID
and
Password

After you have entered all information, press
Save

to your network.
