.!.
In most cases it is sufficient (and recommended) to leave this
setting on AUTO, so the AmiNet110 and the connected switch
can deal out the preferred connection on their own. (AUTO is the
default link mode setting up to firmware version 0.9.4)
DHCP Info:
If there is a DHCP Server in your network you can use dynamic routing. In this case
you do not need the settings IP-address, Netmask, Gateway and DNS. For dynamic
routing check the button.
If you chose DHCP it is easy to find out your IP-address. Select ‘DHCP Info’ (so that it
is highlighted blue like in the picture above) and press ‘Return’ and you get the
Information about your current IP-address, Netmask, Gateway, and DNS Server.
