Ethernet Settings
Setting Description
Enable DHCP Select this field if you want the reader to get its IP address from a
DHCP server.
If this field is not selected, you need to specify the IP address,
subnet mask, and IP router for your network.
IP Address The IP address of the reader. The IP address has the form x.x.x.x,
were x is a number from 0 to 255. The default MAC address is on
the label on the side of the reader.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned IP address appears in
this field.
If DHCP is disabled, specify the IP address in the entry field.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask for this network. The subnet mask has the form
x.x.x.x, where x is a number from 0 to 255.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned subnet mask appears
in this field.
If DHCP is disabled, specify the subnet mask in the entry field.
Router Default The IP address of the router. The IP address has the form x.x.x.x,
were x is a number from 0 to 255.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned router address
appears in this field.
If DHCP is disabled, specify the router address in the entry field.
Link Local IP Address The IP address of the reader is only routable on the local IP
subnet. The reader auto-negotiates with other devices on its
Ethernet segment to obtain a unique address, so no user
configuration of the Link Local IP Address is necessary. The
reader always has a Link Local IP Address, even if another
address is assigned through DHCP or statically via user-
configuration.
IPv6 Autoconfigure Enables IPv6 automatic configuration.
Auto-configuration is enabled by default. If you disable
auto-configuration, you need to specify an IPv6 address, subnet
mask, and router.
IPv6 Address 128-bit IPv6 address for the reader.
