Optional Second Network Interface Card Settings
The features of the Information Center software that require a second Network interface card
(NIC) must be configured before the software is configured. Verify the cards are installed in
the correct slot:
• D510 - PCI slot 3 (see Figure 5-20)
• VL400 - slot 3 (see Figure 5-22)
• VL420 - slot 3 (see Figure 5-21)
• ML370 G2 - slot 6 (top slot) (see Figure 5-24)
• ML370 G3 - slot 3 (see Figure 5-23)
• LC2000 - slot 4 (see Figure 5-25)
These settings are required for this NIC card to connect to the hospital network and are site-
specific. The factory default of the second NIC card IP address is DHCP. Use the settings
defined in ‘Network Card and TCP/IP Settings on page 4-23 to perform the
