The New Entry window appears with the module’s media access control
address (MAC).
6. Type the IP address, host name, and a module description.
7. Click OK.
8. Cycle power to the module by removing and reapplying the DeviceNet
connector.
9. To permanently assign this configuration to the module: Select the
module in the Relation List panel and click Disable BOOTP/DHCP.
When module power is cycled, it uses the assigned configuration and
does not issue a DHCP request.
If you do not click Disable BOOTP/DHCP, on a power cycle, the
module clears the current IP configuration and again begins sending
DHCP requests.

the module using this method.
