Network
The device’s network mode is set to DHCP Client by default, which is appropriate
for most environments. By selecting Static IP, you can manually set the IP address,
netmask, gateway, and DNS (Domain Name Service) server IP address.
To configure the network settings:
1. Click the Network button on the Basic Mode home page.
2. In the Network Mode drop-down menu, select a network mode. Selecting DHCP
Client as a network mode causes the device to obtain an IP address
automatically from the local DHCP server. Selecting Static IP as a network
mode requires you to enter IP information such as IP address, Default Gateway,
and DNS Servers.
3. Click Submit.
