5.2.1.1.2 IP Configuration (IPv4 and IPv6)
To configure the IP parameters of the device when operating in Bridge mode, navigate to ADVANCED CONFIGURATION >
Network > IP Configuration. The following IP Configuration screen appears:
Address Type Specifies whether the Ethernet interface parameters are to be configured through
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or to be assigned statically.
By default, the address type is set to Static meaning which the user can manually
configure the network parameters. Select Dynamic to configure the device as a DHCP
client. If Dynamic is selected, the device obtains the IP parameters from a DHCP server
automatically during the bootup. If a DHCP server is not available or to manually configure
the device’s IP settings, select Static.
IP Address Represents the IP address of the Ethernet interface.
When the address type is set to Static (default address type), the IP address can be
manually configured. By default, the static IP address is set to 169.254.128.132. When the
address type is set to Dynamic, this parameter is read-only and displays the device IP
address obtained from the DHCP server. The device will fall back to 169.254.128.132, if it
cannot obtain the IP address from the DHCP server.
Subnet Mask Represents the subnet mask of the Ethernet interface.
When the address type is set to Static (default address type), the subnet mask can be
manually configured. By default, the subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0. When the
address type is set to Dynamic, this parameter is read-only and displays the device current
subnet mask obtained from the DHCP server. The subnet mask will fall back to
255.255.255.0, if the device cannot obtain the subnet mask from the DHCP server.
Default Gateway IP Address
IP Address Represents the gateway IP address of the device.
When the address type is set to Static (default address type), the gateway IP address can
be manually configured. By default, the gateway IP address is set to 169.254.128.132.
When the address type is set to Dynamic, this parameter is read-only and displays the
device’s current gateway IP address that is obtained from the DHCP server. The gateway IP
address will fall back to 169.254.128.132, if it cannot obtain the gateway IP address from
a DHCP server.
