SGX 5150 IoT Device Gateway User Guide 56
DHCP Client Select to turn On or Off. At boot up, after the physical link is up, the SGX 5150 unit
will attempt to obtain IPv4 settings from a DHCP server and will periodically renew
these settings with the server.
Note: Overrides the BOOTP client, the configured IPv4 address/mask, gateway,
hostname, and domain. Changing this value requires you to reboot the SGX 5150
gateway. Within Web Manager, click Renew to renew the DHCP lease.
IP Address Enter the static IPv4 address to use for the interface. You may enter it alone or in
CIDR format.
Note: This setting will be used if Static IP is active (both DHCP and BOOTP are
Disabled). Changing this value requires you to reboot the SGX 5150 gateway.
When DHCP or BOOTP is enabled, the SGX 5150 unit tries to obtain an IPv4
address from a DHCP or BOOTP server. If it cannot, the SGX 5150 unit generates
and uses an Auto IP address in the range of 169.254.xxx.xxx, with a network mask
of 255.255.0.0.
Default Gateway Enter the IPv4 address of the router for this network.
Note: This setting will be used if Static IP is active (both DHCP and BOOTP are
Disabled).
Domain Enter the domain name suffix for the interface.
Note: This setting will be used when either static IP or auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no domain suffix was acquired from the server.
DHCP Client ID Enter the ID if the DHCP server requires a DHCP client ID option. The DHCP
server’s lease table shows IP addresses and MAC addresses for devices. The
lease table shows the client ID, in hexadecimal notation, instead of the SGX 5150
MAC address.
Primary DNS Enter the IP address of the primary domain name server (DNS.)
Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.
Secondary DNS Enter the IP address of the secondary domain name server.
Note: This setting will be used when either Static IP or Auto IP is active, or if
DHCP/BOOTP is active and no DNS server was acquired from the server.
IPv6 State Select to enable or disable.
IPv6 DHCP Client Select to turn On or Off. At bootup, after the physical link is up, the SGX 5150 unit
will attempt to obtain IPv6 settings from a DHCPv6 server and will periodically
renew these settings with the server.
On: enables the SGX 5150 server to obtain IPv6 setting from a DHCPv6 server
upon bootup.
Off: enables the SGX 5150 server to obtain IPv4 settings from a DHCP server
upon bootup.
Note: Overrides the configured IP address/mask, gateway, hostname, and
domain. Changing this value requires you to reboot the SGX 5150 gateway. Within
Web Manager, click Renew to renew the DHCPV6 lease.
IPv6 Auto
Configuration
Select to turn On or Off IPv6 auto configuration.
IPv6 IP Address Enter the static IPv6 address to use for the interface.
Note: This setting is used if Static IPv6 is active (DHCPv6 is Disabled). Changing
this value requires a reboot. When DHCPv6 is enabled, the SGX 5150 unit tries to
obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. If it cannot, then SGX 5150 unit
generates and uses a Link local IPv6 address.
