Dynamic vs. Static
There are two schemes for assigning IP addresses. One is the Static IP addressing mode. This
involves the user manually setting the IP address for every device on the network. In this case, it
falls to the user to ensure the IPs assigned do not conflict and are within the boundaries of the
network. The other is the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This involves setting up a
separate server to manage the IP addresses. The server is given a list of valid IP addresses for the
network. Using a predetermined set of rules, each new device that wishes to connect to the
network is given an IP address by the server. This takes the task of managing the validity and
uniqueness of IP addresses out of the user's hands and relegates it to the server. Cyclone LC
programmers are capable of using either Static IP addressing or DHCP.
5.2.3.2.2 Edit Static IP Settings
