Polycom SoundStructure C16 User Manual

Design Guide for the Polycom SoundStructure C16, C12, C8, and SR12
10 - 6
If the mode is set to ‘dhcp’ then the remaining arguments are accepted but not
used until the mode is set to static. All arguments have to be sent if the address
is being set to a static IP address.
To enable SoundStructure devices to accept a dynamic IP address use the
command:
set eth_settings 1 “type='dhcp'”
where 1 represents the default device ID of a stand-alone SoundStructure
device. Please note that there are single quotes around the argument ‘dhcp’
and the entire argument string is enclosed in double quotes.
To query the IP settings of the device, use the get action as in the following
example:
get eth_settings 1
val eth_settings 1 “mode='dhcp',addr='172.22.2.110',dns='172.22.1.1
172.22.1.2', gw='172.22.2.254',nm='255.255.255.0'"
To set the address to a static IP address, follow this example:
set eth_settings 1 “mode='static',addr='172.22.2.110',dns='172.22.1.1
172.22.1.2', gw='172.22.2.254',nm='255.255.255.0'"
All the arguments to the eth_settings command must be specified when the
mode is set to ‘static’.
Once the IP address settings have been changed, it is important to make sure
that the project file settings are saved to disk or a preset is saved because this
will ensure the IP address of the SoundStructure device is written perma-
nently to the SoundStructure’s non-volatile memory. Failure to save the file or
save settings to a preset will mean the IP address will revert back to the previ-
ously permanently saved IP address upon a power cycle.
gw Gateway The IP address of the gateway
nm Netmask The netmask defining the subnet
dns Name Server The IP address of the name server used
to resolve host names. Multiple DNS
servers may be specified by separating
the arguments with spaces
Field Definition Values
If connected via IP to the SoundStructure device and the IP address is changed,
reconnect to the system using the new IP address and either save the settings to a
file or save the settings to a preset to ensure the new IP address is stored
permanently in the SoundStructure devices.
