IP Addr
This is the IP address for this Xstream. As with any computer on an IP network, the Zephyr
Xstream must have an IP address before it can be used over the network. This address must be
unique, so you’ll have to ask whoever manages your network to give you this number. This is a
"fixed" or "static" IP address.
If you plan to use the web browser to setup your Xstream, you will first have to set its IP address
here. You may connect the Xstream to your LAN or use a crossover cable to your PC. Make sure
the PC also has an IP address in the same range as the Xstream.
Actually, an IP address is a series of 4 numbers separated by periods. This is a numeric‐only field;
enter the numbers using the dial pad. Both # and * will give you a period. As usual, the
5 key
will backspace if you make a mistake, or need to delete an old entry.
SN Mask
This is your subnet mask. The default 255.255.255.0 is usually fine. Change this only if your
Network administrator tells you to. This is also an IP address, see the rules above.
The subnet mask is to determine the size of your “local” network. All packets addressed to a
destination outside this “local” area are sent to the gateway node entered in the next selection.
Just as with the IP address, the Subnet mask is a series of 4 numbers separated by periods.
Enter the numbers using the dial pad. Both # and * will give you a period. This is a numeric‐only
field; enter the digits as described above. As usual, the
5 key will backspace if you make a
mistake or need to delete an old entry.
