The network configuration page contains all of the necessary options to control Cube‟s wired,

wireless, and USB network interfaces.

values, current domain, and allows you to set Cube‟s hostname. The default hostname for cube

is cube-xxx-yyyyy, where xxx

is Cube‟s model number and yyyyy is the last five digits of the

serial number.

1.3. Wired and Wireless Settings

number of IP address modes, detailed below.

1.3.1.1.

DHCP Server (wireless only, encoder only)

– When in Ad Hoc mode, Cube can

act as a DHCP server. Cube will use the IP address 172.16.1.1 and assign other

devices addresses in the 172.16.x.x range. In this mode, Cube can also be reached

1.3.1.2.

Dynamic (DHCP) (wired) / DHCP Client (wireless)

– In this mode, Cube requests

an IP address from the DHCP server. This setting is used when connecting to existing

networks. If Cube does not receive an IP address, it will assign a link local IP address.

1.3.1.3.

Static

– In this mode, you provide network settings for Cube. For local network

streaming, Cube requires (as a minimum) an IP address and subnet mask. For

Internet or wide area streaming, a gateway and nameserver may be required.
