StaticIPv4Address Thisiswhenyouspecifytheaddressesforthehostmachineand/orconnected
deviceratherthanlettingthehostmachineself-assignorusingaDHCPserver. Forexample,you
may want to specify the host machine IPv4 address to be 192.0.2.100/24 and the sensor to be
192.0.2.200.
Hostname This is the morehuman readable name that comes with your sensor. The sensor’s host-
nameis os-991234567890.local,where 991234567890 is thesensorserial number.
Note: The .local portion of the hostname denotes the local domain used in combination with

DHCP and DNS server configuration you should replace the .local with the domain the sensor
is on. For example, if the sensor is connected to a network with domain ouster-domain.com the
sensorwill bereachable onos-991234567890.ouster-domain.com.
