6.6.1. Assign IP address automatically
The matrix switcher supports three of the most commonly used automatic IP
configuration protocols.
Step 1 Click on Configuration menu
Step 2 Select Network Settings
Step 3 Select Obtain IP address automatically
Step 4 Enter the following (as necessary):
BOOTP
Select
Enable
to permit the Bootstrap Protocol
(BOOTP) server to assign the IP address from
a pool of addresses automatically.
DHCP
Select
Enable
to permit the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to
assign leased IP address to the matrix unit
automatically.
AutoIP
Select
Enable
to permit the matrix to generate
an IP in the 169.254.x.x address range with
Class B subnet.
Info: Disabling BOOTP, DHCP, and AutoIP (all three checkboxes) is not advised as the
only available IP assignment method will then be ARP or serial port.
When you are finished, click Apply Settings button
Info: To continue using the Web Manager, you must type the new IP address in the
browser.
