NPort 5000 Series User Manual
Web Interface for the NPort IA5000A Series
You must assign a valid IP address to the NPort before it will work in your network environment. Your
network system administrator should provide you with an IP address and related settings for your network.
The IP address must be unique within the network (otherwise, the NPort will not have a valid connection to
the network). You can choose from four possible IP configuration modes—Static, DHCP, DHCP/BOOTP,
and BOOTP—located under the web console screen’s IP configuration dropdown box.
The user must define the IP address, Netmask, and Gateway.
The DHCP Server assigns the IP address, Netmask, Gateway, DNS, and Time Server
DHCP/BOOTP
The DHCP Server assigns the IP address, Netmask, Gateway, DNS, and Time Server, or
the BOOTP Server assigns the IP address (if the DHCP Server does not respond).
The BOOTP Server assigns the IP address.
