Note:

Changing the network settings of the IP-KVM might result in losing connection to it. In case
you change the settings remotely make sure that all the values are correct and you still
have an option to access the IP-KVM.

System Setting

With this option you can control if the IP-KVM should fetch

its network settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For

DHCP, select “dhcp” , and for BOOTP select “bootp”

accordingly. If you choose “none” then IP auto configuration

is disabled.

IP auto configuration

Preferred host name to request from DHCP server. Whether

the DHCP server takes the IP-KVM suggestion into account

or not depends on the server configuration.

Preferred host name

IP address

Subnet Mask

In case the IP-KVM should be accessible from networks

other than the local one, this IP address must be set to

the local network router's IP address.

cannot be contacted.
