6.4.2 Network Settings
Menu: Setup » network
Under this menu item, the web interface shows information about the network.
'Current network status' shows different settings you need for network operation.
In the section 'IP configuration', you determine where the TOPAS gets its IP address from.
• DHCP: A DHCP server assigns an IP address.
• Auto IP: With this function, the device generates and requests an IP address on its own
from the IP range 169.254.1.1 to 169.254.254.255, with the subnet mask 255.255.0.0.
• Static IP: The user assigns a fixed IP address.
Make sure that your network setting of the client (the device with which you access the
amplifier) is the same as the amplifier's settings. If you change and confirm the amplifier's IP
mode, the IP address can change inadvertently, thus blocking your access to the amplifier via
the client. In this case, you have to adjust the client's settings to change the IP address on the
amplifier. (see page 50)
