Dynamic Network Settings
This page manages the embedded DHCP Client/Server.
When Client is selected, the Show Dynamic Parameters link is available.
When Server is selected, the Show Clients link is available.
Dynamic settings must be used if a router is connected to the system. Then, when the
DHCP is in Client mode, the router will distribute the IP addresses dynamically.
Alternatively, if the laptop is set to DHCP Client mode and it should not be changed,
the ACU can be set to DHCP Server mode so that the ACU will give the IP to the
laptop.
