UDS1100 Device Server User Guide 17
Required Information
Before configuring the UDS, have the following information available:
Hardware Address
Take note of the unit’s hardware address (also known as the Ethernet or MAC
address). It is on the product label (see
Product Information Label).
Hardware Address: 00 – 20 - 4a - _____ - _____ - _____
OR
Hardware Address: 00 – 80 - A3 - _____ - _____ - _____
Note: Make note of the MAC address. It is needed to locate the UDS1100
module using DeviceInstaller.
IP Address
The UDS must have a unique IP address on your network. This address
references the specific unit. By default, the unit is DHCP-enabled and
automatically assigned an IP address on DHCP-enabled networks. If you are
assigning a static IP address, the systems administrator generally provides the IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway.
Note: The factory default IP address is 0.0.0.0 to enable DHCP, BOOTP,
and AutoIP. When the units boots, it sends a DHCP broadcast to try and
get an IP address. If it receives no reply from a DHCP server, the UDS
tries BOOTP. If the UDS does not receive a response from BOOTP, it
reverts to an AutoIP address.
IP Address: _______ - _______ - _______ - _______
Subnet Mask: _______ - _______ - _______ - _______
Gateway: _______ - _______ - _______ - _______
You have several options for assigning an IP address and related network
settings to your unit. This chapter provides information about using the
DeviceInstaller (graphical user interface) and serial port login (command line
interface) methods.
Note: For information about other methods of assigning the IP address,
such as DHCP, AutoIP, ARP, and Telnet, see E: Alternative Ways to
Assign an IP Address
