Control Ethernet Connection
A standard RJ-45 connector provides connection to the SNMP and web interface of the DMG
1200. The connection is a 10/100 BaseT connection. A user can view the IP address of the unit
from the front panel or once known can access the web interface through any supported web
browser by typing the IP address of the unit. The control port is capable of both DHCP and static
IP addressing. By default the IP address of the DMG 1200 is dynamically set to DHCP.
