Using a Static IP Address

USB Fusion uses an DHCP-assigned IP address by default, which can effectively

avoid IP address conflict, but can also result in constant IP address changes.

if no DHCP service is available in a network, you can manually set a static IP

address for USB Fusion. The static IP address will remain unchanged. However,

you must make sure that this IP address is not used by any other device on the

same network.

1.

Log in to the web UI as the Admin user.

2. Choose

System

>

Network

.

3. In the

Ethernet

area, click

Edit

.

4. On the displayed window, enable

Set IP Address Manually

, and set

IP

Address

,

Submask

, and

Gateway

.

The current network settings are used by default. Only IPv4 addresses are

supported, while IPv6 address are not.

5. Click

Apply

.

6. In the address bar of a browser, enter the new IP address to ensure it can

be used to access USB Fusion.

To change back to using the DHCP service to obtain an IP address,

disable

Use Static IP Address

and click

Apply

. The parameters in

the dialog box will be restored to their defaults.

If you are currently accessing the web UI using an Ethernet IP

address, since the original IP address can no longer be used for

access, the device will log you out.
