476 Eos Family Operations Manual
Local Area Connection
These are the settings that determine the method to get an IP address and/or the actual IP address
information that Eos uses for network communication.
Note: Eos Ti, Gio, Gio @ 5, Ion Xe, Element 2, RPU3, and RVI3 have dual NICs. Eos has a
single NIC.
Status
This reports if the port is “Online” (configured, connected to a network and operational). It reports
as “Offline” if any one of the above conditions is not true.
Obtain an IP Automatically
Note: ETC recommends the use of a static IP address for compatibility with other ETC
devices, though the needs of your particular installation may vary.
Clicking in the enable box will set the desk to get its IP address dynamically from a DHCP server.
While the desk is starting, it will ask for an IP address from a DHCP server. If one responds, it will use
the assigned IP address.
If no DHCP server is available, the desk will default to a self-generated link-local IP address in the
range of 169.254.x.y. The IP address used by the desk in this configuration may change dynamically
as needed. A change should typically only occur when there are changes to the network con-
figuration or to resolve an IP address conflict.
Enabling or disabling the DHCP setting will require you to reboot the desk for the new setting to take
affect.
Note: You cannot set the desk to receive an IP address via DHCP and act as a DHCP server
at the same time. It can either send dynamic addresses or receive them, but not both at the
same time.
