5.1.1 Interface

This area of configuration allows the user to set up an IP address for the instrument, either by typing one
in (Fixed), or automatically (DHCP), assuming a DHCP server is running.










Figure 2.2.1 Network Interface menu

MAC

Read only. Media Access Control. A unique address for each instrument, entered
at the factory.

Client Identifier

The client identifier is a unique id used by DHCP servers that implement option 61.
Each nano product will have a unique ID built up from its MAC address. If the DHCP
server is configured to use option 61, then it will use this id instead of the MAC
address to assign a dynamic IP address.

IP Type

If ‘Fixed’, the user needs to enter an IP address and Subnet Mask in the following
fields, and a Gateway address if required.
If ‘DHCP’ the subsequent fields become read only, with the entries automatically
generated by the DHCP server. When set to DHCP, it takes several seconds before
the IP address is obtained from the DHCP server.

IP Address

Read only if ‘IP Type’ = ‘DHCP’.
If ‘IP Type’ = ‘Fixed’, the user may enter an IP address (IPV4 dot notation). This
would normally be supplied by the user’s IT department, or from the Network
supervisor.

Subnet Mask

Read only if ‘IP Type’ = ‘DHCP’.
If ‘IP Type’ = ‘Fixed’, this sets a range of IP addresses that can be accessed.
Normally supplied by the user’s IT department, or from the Network supervisor.

Subnet Mask

Read only if ‘IP Type’ = ‘DHCP’.
If ‘IP Type’ = ‘Fixed’, this sets a range of IP addresses that can be accessed.
Normally supplied by the user’s IT department, or from the Network supervisor.

INTERFACE (CONT.)

Gateway

Read only if ‘IP Type’ = ‘DHCP’.
If ‘IP Type’ = ‘Fixed’ this allows the user to enter a gateway address for use when
the unit is to communicate outside the local network. Normally supplied by the
user’s IT department, or from the Network supervisor.
