Warning

The initial IP configuration is usually done directly at the host system using
the special procedure described in Table 4-1.

Warning

Changing the network settings of the IP-KVM switch might result in losing
connection to it. In case you change the settings remotely make sure that
all the values are correct and you still have an option to access the
IP-KVM switch.

IP auto configuration

With this option you can control if the IP-KVM switch should fetch its network
settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For DHCP, select “dhcp” , and for
BOOTP select “bootp” accordingly. If you choose “none” then IP auto
configuration is disabled.
