network uses DHCP, the network configuration is performed
automatically at startup. A steady yellow PWR/RDY LED indicates

The unit is now ready to operate. You may need to run software
configuration and verification utilities at this time.

end to your GPIB instrument.
Baseplate Identification Label
When you configure the GPIB-ENET/100 for use on your network,
you will need to differentiate it from other network devices. Every
GPIB-ENET/100 has a unique serial number, Ethernet address, and
default hostname. You can find this information on the baseplate
identification label on the GPIB-ENET/100.
Note The Ethernet address is not the IP address. All devices on an Ethernet network
are assigned a unique physical address—the Ethernet address—so they can communicate
with each other.
