Setting Individual Parameters
Once the LAN card is inserted, setting parameters appear on the SYSTEM 4
INTERFACE screen as shown below. Move the cursor to a parameter you
want to set up. After making all necessary setting changes, press F5 [Enter]
to confirm. Otherwise, the changes will not be reflected.
SYSTEM 4 INTERFACE 1/2 screen
DHCP ON/OFF
Set whether to use DHCP.
DHCP enables a device to obtain its IP address or other information
automatically.
When DHCP is ON and a DHCP server is running on the same network, the
8841/42 obtains its IP address and subnet mask, then is automatically set up.
Any available DNS and gateway information are also obtained. (The
information obtained from DHCP has priority over manually entered
settings.)
Host Name
Set the name to represent the 8841/42 on the network. Choose a unique
name that is different from those of other devices on the network. When
using the 9333 LAN COMMUNICATOR, note that the host name is used to
identify a directory on the PC.
Dynamic DNS is not supported and therefore the set host name will not be
registered in DNS.
IP Address
Set the IP address of the 8841/42.
The IP address is used to identify individual devices on a network. Set a
unique address that is different from those of other devices on the network.
When DHCP is ON, it automatically sets the IP address.
Subnet Mask
Subnet mask is used to divide an IP address into a network address and host
address. Set the subnet mask the same way that subnet masks of other
devices on the network are set up.
When DHCP is ON, it automatically sets the subnet mask.
