DHCP radio buttons
The
DHCP On
radio button directs the switcher to ignore any entered IP addresses and to
obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the
network is DHCP capable). The
DHCP Off
radio button turns DHCP off. Contact the local
system administrator to determine if DHCP is appropriate.
IP Address field
The
IP Address
field contains the IP address of the connected switcher. This value is
encoded in the flash memory of the switcher.
Standard IP protocol consists of addresses comprised of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric
subfields, properly called “octets”, separated by dots (periods). Each field can be numbered
from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to three digits total per field, are optional. Values
of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other
equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
NOTE: IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system
administrators should change IP addresses.
Gateway IP Address field
The
Gateway
IP
Address
field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail server to be
used if the switcher and the mail server are not on the same subnet.
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.
Subnet Mask field
The
Subnet
Mask
field is used to determine whether the switcher is on the same subnet
as the mail server when you are subnetting. For more information, see
on page 87.
MAC Address
The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be
changed.
Firmware field
The
Firmware
field identifies the installed firmware version. This field is hardcoded in the
switcher and cannot be changed.
Model field
The
Model
field identifies the switcher as a FOX Matrix 320x or FOX Matrix 14400. This field
is hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be changed.
Part Number field
The
Part
Number
field identifies the part number of your switcher. This field is hardcoded in
the switcher and cannot be changed.
