3.3 Network IP Address
The next step is to enter an IP address for the principal Ethernet (LAN/Network/Network1) port on the console server; or
enable its DHCP client so that it automatically obtains an IP address from a DHCP server on the network it is to be
connected to.
 On the System: IP menu select the Network Interface page then check DHCP or Static for the Configuration
Method
 If you selected Static you must manually enter the new IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS server
details. This selection automatically disables the DHCP client
 If you selected DHCP the console server will look for configuration details from a DHCP server. This selection
automatically disables any static address. The console server MAC address can be found on a label on the base
plate
