Setting the LAN configuration method
There are two methods used to configure the LAN.
AUTO: Use the AUTO setting to allow the DHCP server to automatically set the LAN settings.
You do not need to set the LAN options manually. The DHCP server automatically configures the IP
address, subnet mask, and the default gateway. To use this option, a DHCP server must be available
on the LAN.
MANUAL: Use the MANUAL setting to manually configure the communication parameters.
The MANUAL setting requires you to configure the following:
• IP address
• Gateway
• Subnet mask
To select a LAN configuration method:
1. From the front panel, press the MENU key, and then select LAN > CONFIG > METHOD.
2. Select either AUTO or MANUAL.
3. Press the ENTER key.
4. Press the EXIT (LOCAL) key once to return to the LAN CONFIG menu.
5. Select APPLY > YES, and then press the ENTER key.
