5. Initial Configuration


The iBoot Setup Utility supplied on the distribution CD provides the easiest means to find and configure your iBoot
for use. It can discover all the iBoots on your network, display the current IP address of each, and allow setting of
any valid IP address. The Setup Utility is available on the distribution CD or at

dataprobe.com/support_iboot.html


The Setup Utility will not discover any iBoots that have previously been set to Stealth Mode. See page 9 for
additional information on Stealth Mode.

5.1.

Install and run the iBoot Setup Utility:

1. Load the iBoot CD. (The CD supports only Windows)
2. Click on Setup.exe
3. Install the iBoot Setup Utility
4. Run the iBoot Setup Utility


Note: The IP address can only be set within the first two
minutes of powering up the iBoot, and requires a power
restart of the iBoot after setting the IP address. Make
sure you have physical access to the iBoot before
attempting to set the IP Address. The Setup Utility will
only work with iBoots on the same local subnets as the
iBoots.

Once the iBoot Setup Utility is run, click on Discovery to
display all the iBoots on your network. New iBoots will
display with the name Set Location and have either the
factory default IP address of 192.168.1.254 or an IP
address that was automatically assigned by the DHCP
server on your network. If the IP address was assigned
by a DHCP server, no changes to the IP Address are
required.

The IP address field also indicates the IP port that is used
by the iBoot. The standard port for web browser control is
factory default Port 80.
