1.4 IP Address Setup
Before you log into the CGNM-2250’s GUI, your computer’s IP address must be in
the same subnet as the CGNM-2250. This allows your computer to communicate with
the CGNM-2250.
NOTE: See IP Addresses and Subnets on page 33 for background information.
The CGNM-2250 has a built-in DHCP server that, when active, assigns IP addresses
to computers on the LAN. When the DHCP server is active, you can get an IP
address automatically. The DHCP server is active by default.
If your computer is configured to get an IP address automatically, or if you are not
sure, try to log in to the CGNM-2250 (see
GUI Overview on page 23).
If the login screen displays, your computer is already configured correctly.
If the login screen does not display, either the CGNM-2250’s DHCP server is not
active or your computer is not configured correctly. Follow the procedure in
Manual IP Address Setup on page 21 and set your computer to get an IP
address automatically. Try to log in again. If you cannot log in, follow the manual
IP address setup procedure again, and set a specific IP address as shown. Try
to log in again.
NOTE: If you still cannot see the login screen, your CGNM-2250’s IP settings may
have been changed from their defaults. If you do not know the CGNM-2250’s
new address, you should return it to its factory defaults. See Factory Default
Resetting the CGNM-2250 on page 24. Bear in mind that ALL user-
configured settings are lost.
1.4.1 Manual IP Address Setup
By default, your CGNM-2250’s local IP address is 192.168.0.1. If your CGNM-2250 is
using the default IP address, you should set your computer’s IP address to be
between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254.
NOTE: If your CGNM-2250 DHCP server is active, set your computer to get an IP
address automatically in step 5. The CGNM-2250 assigns an IP address to
your computer. The DHCP server is active by default.
