Axel Remote Management
This step checks to see if the terminal already has an IP address (obtained
either from a DHCP server or has previously been assigned a static IP address
but is not yet recorded in AxRM's database - in both these cases it is assumed
the terminal is not new):
This check may be done by:
- Resolving the terminal’s name (DNS server must be available but works
over a WAN)
- And/or by sending an SNMP request (only works on a LAN).
If the above check indicates the terminal is ‘new’ and has no IP address the
'step 2' is enabled. If the terminal is found to have an IP address the terminal
can be setup (step 3).
b) Step 2 - Set-Up an IP Address
Enter the IP address to assign and click on [Set IP Address].
The IP address is set by sending ping requests to the terminal (this works only
in a LAN).
When the IP address is set, Step 3 is enabled.
