This section describes how to determine the dynamically allocated IP address. The address
is used to access the IPBS/IPBL using a web browser. Two methods are described:
• In a Network without a DHCP Server on page 26.
• In a Network with a DHCP Server on page 26.
In a Network without a DHCP Server
If the network does not have a DHCP server, and the DHCP mode is set to "automatic"
(factory default), follow the steps below.
Note: If the IPBS/IPBL has been used before, it must be restored to factory default settings
by performing a long hardware reset, see
7.13 Reset Using the Reset Button on page 60.
1 Connect a ethernet cable between the IPBS/IPBL and the computer.
Note: For IPBS, a power adapter must be used.
Note: For IPBL, make sure to use the LAN1 port.
2 Perform a hardware reset by shortly pressing the reset button.
3 The IPBS/IPBL will be assigned the IP address 192.168.0.1 and the netmask
255.255.255.0.
4 Enter http://192.168.0.1 in the browser address field to access the IPBS/IPBL GUI.
5 After the first startup the DHCP mode should be changed from "automatic" to
either "client" or "off", see
7.2.1 Set DHCP Mode on page 37.
In a Network with a DHCP Server
If the network has a DHCP server the IP address is determined following the steps below.
The IPBS/IPBL MAC address can be found on the label on the box and on the label on the
backside. The hexadecimal numbers (xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx) represent the MAC address.
Note: Make sure to use the LAN1 port for the IPBL.
Note: In order to determine the IP address using this method it is necessary to have a PC
with MS Windows. It must be connected to the same LAN (broadcast domain) as the IPBS/
IPBL.
Determine the IP address following the steps below:
Note: If the IPBS/IPBL has been used before, it must be restored to factory default settings
by performing a long hardware reset, see
7.13 Reset Using the Reset Button on page 60.
Then remove the power supply cable and connect it again.
1 Open a command window in windows by selecting Start > Run and enter "cmd" in
the Open: text field.
2 Enter the following commands:
C:\ nbtstat -R
C:\ nbtstat -a ipbs-xx-xx-xx (ipbl-xx-xx-xx)
Where xx-xx-xx should be replaced with the last 6 hexadecimal digits of the MAC-
address.
3 The IP address is displayed in the command window, see the white frame in figure
19.
