Setting Ethernet 2
Ethernet is the method the SuperLoader uses to access a network. With an
Ethernet connection, you can remotely access the SuperLoader over the
network to which it is connected. To use the Ethernet connection, you
must define the following:
• A dynamic or static IP address for the SuperLoader (required)
• A subnet mask (required)
• An IP gateway (optional)
• A Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) server (optional)
• A time server, or set the time and time zone manually (optional)
IP Address 2 An IP address is the address of any device attached to a network. Each
device must have a unique IP address. IP addresses are written as four
sets of numbers separated by periods ranging from
0.0.0.0 up to and
including
255.255.255.255.
IP addresses are either permanent or dynamically assigned. A
permanent, or static, address remains the same each time the device
connects to the network. A dynamic address may change each time the
device connects to the network and is assigned by the network server
using DHCP.
To Set a Dynamic IP Address: 2
