The Gateway Address provides the IP address to which packets of data should
be sent to route them to their final destination, if on a large enterprise-wide LAN
or the internet. While the Smart Trac AC1 allows you to change the gateway
address to any required, the default of no address will work in nearly all
situations. In enterprise-wide LANs the default may not be acceptable. Contact
your LAN Administrator to determine the proper gateway address.
The DNS Server is unavailable for changes. This accepts the default of no
address. Selecting DNS Server will cause a "Not Available" message to be
displayed on the digital operator.
Refer to your computer's Operating System documentation when installing
TCP/IP services and protocol.
You typically verify your TCP/IP configuration with two simple commands:
IPCONFIG and PING:
1. Click START, PROGRAMS, COMMAND PROMPT. A DOS
window appears with the cursor at the default directory.

2. Type IPCONFIG. A listing should appear of the IP Address, subnet
mask, and default gateway for all network adapters to which TCP/IP is
bound on your computer.
