4. In the āQuick Setupā screen, set the MediaPack āIP Addressā, āSubnet Maskā and āDefault
Gateway IP Addressā fields under āIP Configurationā to correspond with your network IP
settings. If your network doesnāt feature a default gateway, enter a dummy value in the
āDefault Gateway IP Addressā field.
5. Click the Reset button and click OK in the prompt; the MediaPack applies the changes and
restarts. This takes approximately 2 minutes to complete. When the MediaPack has finished
restarting, the Power and Ready LEDs on the front panel are lit green.
Tip: Record & retain the IP address and subnet mask you assign the MediaPack.
Do the same when defining new username or password. If the Embedded
Web Server is unavailable (for example, if youāve lost your username and
password), use the BootP/TFTP configuration utility to access the device,
āreflashā the load and reset the password (refer to the MediaPack Userās
Manuals for detailed information on using a BootP/TFTP server to access the
device).
6. Disconnect your PC from the MediaPack or from the hub / switch (depending on the
connection method you used in step 1).
7. Reconnect the MediaPack and your PC (if necessary) to the network.
8. Restore your PCās IP address & subnet mask to what they originally were. If necessary,
restart your PC and re-access the MediaPack via the Embedded Web Server with its new
assigned IP address.
3.1.2 Assigning an IP Address Using BootP
Tip 1: BootP procedure can also be performed using any standard compatible
BootP server.
Tip 2: You can also use BootP to load the auxiliary files to the MediaPack (refer to
the productās Userās Manual).
¾ To assign an IP address using BootP, take these 12 steps:
1. Open the BootP application (supplied with the software package).
2. Click on the Edit Clients icon;
the āClient Configurationā screen is displayed.
3. Click on the Add New Client icon;
a client with blank parameters is displayed (Figure 3-1).
4. In the āClient MACā field, enter the MAC address of the gateway. The MAC address is printed
on a label located on the base of the MediaPack.
5. Verify that the box to the right of the āClient MACā field is checked. This enables the particular
client in the BootP tool (if the client is disabled, no replies are sent to BootP requests).
6. In the āClient Nameā field, enter a descriptive name for this client so that it is easier to
remember which gateway the record refers to. For example, this name could refer to the
location of the gateway.
7. In the āIPā field, enter the IP address you want to apply to the gateway. Use the normal dotted
decimal format.
8. In the āSubnetā field, enter the subnet mask you want to apply to the gateway. Use the
normal dotted decimal format. Ensure that the subnet mask is correct. If the address is
incorrect, the gateway may not function until the entry is corrected and a BootP reset is
applied.
9. In the āGatewayā field, enter the IP address for the default gateway. If you do not know the IP
address for the default gateway, contact your network administrator.
