User Manual
b. Select Use the following IP configuration to manually specify the IP address.
(1) IP Address: If DHCP is not used to assign IP addresses, enter it manually in
decimal-dot notation. The IP address must be set to a unique value in the
network.
(2) Subnet Mask: A subnet mask defines the number of bits taken from the IP
address that are assigned for the host part.
(3) Default Gateway: The gateway address, or router, allows communication to other
LAN segments. The gateway address should be the IP address of the router
connected to the same LAN segment as the unit. The gateway address must be
within the local network.
(4) DNS Server: The DNS server allows the name of a remote machine to be
resolved automatically. Enter the IP address of the DNS server. If the device is
DHCP enabled, the DHCP server provides the DNS server IP address, which will
override this configured value. Note: This setting is applicable only in Manual
Connection mode.
