OptiView Analyzer Set-up
TCP/IP
When the analyzer is first connected to the network, it will attempt to
determine configuration settings using DHCP. If there is no DHCP
response, the analyzer will look at its current configuration to
determine if it is valid. If it is invalid, the analyzer will select a local
IP subnet based on which IP subnet has the most hosts and then pick
an unused IP address valid for the subnet. If another device on the
subnet with the same IP address as the analyzer is connected, the
analyzer will automatically discontinue use of that address and warn
the user in the status bar and also in the problem discovery.
