Appendix F. TCP/IP Ethernet Setup
F.1 Introduction
The modem supports SNMP, FTP protocols and the Web Browser. Utilization of the protocols is
dependent upon proper set up of the TCP-IP menus. This document is to be used only as a
guideline for setting up the TCP-IP menus. Contact the IT manager for proper guidance to
ensure setup is successful. For additional information on the various WEB or SNMP
configurations and descriptions refer to the Remote Protocol Manual (MN-DMDREMOTEOP).
F.2 TCP/IP Network Configuration
Using the Front Panel display and arrow keys, scroll thru the System menu until the TCP / IP sub
menu is displayed. Each unit requires proper configuration with the correct network settings.
IMPORTANT
Before you set any IP address, contact the IT authority in your organization for help.
Enter into the TCP / IP menu and the following Sub menus will appear, however the order may
vary.
1. Boot Mode: This allows for the selection of the operating boot mode for the TCP / IP.
Several selections are available and are described below. When configuring the modem for
Web Browser, Boot Mode must be set to “NON-VOL”. A brief description of the available
selections are:
a. Default: If the Ethernet interface is not to be used, select this mode. No IP Address or
mask changes will be allowed while in this mode of operation. The following parameters
will be set and will not change until the boot mode is changed. The IP addresses are non
accessible addresses.
