DHCP (DHCP setting)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is the protocol that assigns
the information required to establish a network connection when a host
attempts to connect to the network (Internet). This information includes
the IP address of the local node and the default router (the router in the
host's own network system) and the DNS (Domain Name System) server.
DHCP is an extension of the BOOTP (Bootstrap) startup protocol.
1 In the IPv4 Setting menu, press U or V to select DHCP.
2 Press [OK]. The DHCP screen appears.
3 Press U or V to select whether DHCP is enabled.
4 Press [OK]. The DHCP setting is set and the IPv4 Setting menu
reappears.
IP Address (IP address setting)
An IP address is the address of a network device such as a computer and
is included in IP packets as needed for the sending and receiving of
Internet data (IP packets). (IP addresses can be either destination
addresses or source addresses.)
Specifically, an IP address is a bit string consisting of a host address (or
host section) that identifies a computer (host) connected to the Internet
and a network address (or network section) that identifies the network to
which that computer belongs (or more specifically, the computer's
network interface). Bit strings (IP addresses) that are unique throughout
the entire Internet system are allocated to each computer or interface.
The IP addresses currently used on the Internet (IPv4) have a fixed length
of 32 bits.
1 In the IPv4 Setting menu, press U or V to select IP Address.
2 Press [OK]. The IP Address screen appears.
3 Use the arrow keys to set the IP address.
Press U or V to increase or decrease, respectively, the value at the
blinking cursor. You can set any value between 000 and 255.
Use Y and Z to move the cursor right and left.
4 Press [OK]. The IP address is stored and the IPv4 Setting menu
reappears.
Note When you enter the IP address, be sure to set the DHCP
setting to Off.
