The IP Setup Page contains the following fields:
Configuration Method — Indicates if the IP address has been
configured statically or added dynamically. The possible field values
are:
Static — Indicates that the IP Interface is configured by the user.
DHCP — Indicates that the IP Interface is dynamically created.
IP Address — Displays the currently configured IP address.
Subnet Mask — Displays the currently configured subnet mask.
Default Gateway — Displays the currently configured default
gateway.
2 Select Static or DHCP mode.
3 If Static has been selected, configure the IP Address, Subnet Mask
and Default Gateway.
4 Click Apply. The IP configuration is enabled, and the device is up
dated.
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) converts IP addresses into physi-
cal addresses, and maps the IP address to a MAC address. ARP allows
a host to communicate with other hosts when only the IP address of its
neighbors is known.
