3-2
Initializing the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485’s IP
Address
Determine whether your IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 needs to use a Static IP or Dynamic IP (either DHCP or
BOOTP application).
If the
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485
is used in a Static IP environment
, you can use the S/E-Converter
Administrator, Web Console, Telnet Console, or Serial Console to configure the new IP address.
If the
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485
is used in a Dynamic IP environment
, you can use the S/E-Converter
Administrator, Web Console, Telnet Console, or Serial Console to configure the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 to
get an IP address dynamically with DHCP, DHCP/BOOTP, or BOOTP.
ATTENTION
Consult your network administrator on how to reserve a fixed IP address for your IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485
in the MAC-IP mapping table when using a DHCP Server or BOOTP Server. In most applications, you should
assign a fixed IP address to your IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485.
Factory Default IP Address
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 products are configured with the following default private IP address:
Default IP address:
192.168.1.110
(IP addresses of the form 192.168.xxx.xxx are referred to as private IP addresses, since it is not possible to
directly access a device configured with a private IP address from a public network. For example, you would not
be able to ping such a device from an outside Internet connection. IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 applications that
require sending data over a public network, such as the Internet, require setting up the server with a valid
public IP address, which can be leased from a local ISP.)
