Using the Web Server

NTRIP Client Via

Ethernet

• First, click on the

Connections> Ethernet submenu.

• Set the following Ethernet parameters to allow the receiver

to access the network through its Ethernet port:

DHCP: Enabling this option means the local network to
which the receiver is connected will automatically
allocate a dynamic IP address to the receiver. If this
option is disabled, you need to define the receiver’s
static

IP address, and give information about the local

network (

Subnetwork Mask and Gateway). You may need

to be assisted by a network expert -or IT Manager- to
define these parameters (as well as the three
parameters below).

If you activate the

DHCP option, then it’s a good idea to

define a hostname for your receiver and declare it to

DynDNS (see

DynDNS frame at the bottom of the page).

DynDNS is a free service that will make sure the

dynamic IP address allotted to the receiver by your ISP

is always attached to your receiver’s hostname. This

requires that you open an account on DynDNS. For

more information on this service, see Creating an

Account on Dyn.com on page

91.

DNS 1 IP Address: Enter the IP address of the primary
DNS providing the correspondence between the
receiver server name and its IP address.

DNS 2 IP Address: Enter the IP address of the secondary
DNS providing the correspondence between the
receiver server name and its IP address

(

MAC Address is a read-only field showing the hardware

identification of the receiver’s Ethernet port.)

• Ignore the

Port I settings frame on the right.

• Click on the

Configure button to let the Web Server load all

your new parameters to the receiver.
