5.2 NETWORK

The “Network” tab allows you to view and customize the following settings. If you are unsure or have ques-
tions about changing your network settings, contact your network administrator. When you are finished, click
the

Commit Changes

button to save the changes.

5.2.1 Host Name

Allows you to change what name for the Ditto Forensic FieldStation will be displayed on a network. Host
names are

not

case sensitive, but

must

begin with any letter “A-Z”. They can contain the the letters A-Z,

numbers 0-9, underscore “_”, and dash “-” characters. Host names must also be limited to 64 characters.

5.2.2 Source Network

The “Source Network” section displays the source Ethernet port’s MAC Address as well as its IP assign-
ment method. You can choose either “DHCP (Auto Config)” or “Static IP (Manual Settings)” from the top
drop-down box.

The “Remote Accessibility” drop-down box allows you to choose whether or not the Ditto Forensic Field-
Station responds to any network traffic via the source Ethernet port.

5.2.3 Destination Network

The “Destination Network” section displays the source Ethernet port’s MAC Address as well as its net-
working mode. You can choose either “Server”, “Client (DHCP)”, or “Client (Static IP)” from the drop-
down box.

Server

“Server” allows you to configure the Ditto Forensic FieldStation for use as a server. This can be
helpful if you are connecting an iSCSI device to the destination Ethernet port, for example (see Section
11.3.2), or you are connecting Ditto directly to your computer instead of through your office network.
The default settings below will work for most environments. This is an advanced option, so do not cus-
tomize the default server configuration below unless directed to do so by your network administrator.
