Before carrying out the procedure below, turn ON the power to the relevant MX100 and
connect the MX100. When connecting the MX100 for the first time, the MX100 and the
PC must be connected locally in a one-to-one configuration.

Connecting the MX100 and the PC to a mission-critical network before an appropriate IP address
is assigned to the MX100 may adversely affect other connected devices on the network.
