Bridge Mode
If the device is configured in Bridge mode, the following screen is displayed:
Configure or view the following parameters:
• IP Address Assignment Type:
–Select Static if you want to assign a static IP address to the unit. Use this setting if you do not have a DHCP
server or if you want to manually configure the IP settings
–Select Dynamic to have the device run in DHCP client mode, which gets an IP address automatically from a
DHCP server over the network.
When the unit is in Bridge mode, only one IP address is required. This IP address also can be changed with ScanTool
(see Setting the IP Address with ScanTool).
• IP Address: The unit’s static IP address (default IP address is 10.0.0.1). This parameter is configurable only if the IP
Address Assignment Type is set to Static.
• Subnet Mask: The mask of the subnet to which the unit is connected (the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0).
This parameter is configurable only if the IP Address Assignment Type is set to Static.
• Default Router IP Address: The IP address of the default gateway. This parameter is configurable only if the IP
Address Assignment Type is set to Static.
