Chapter 3 Setup and Commands
EXAMPLE This example explains how to change from a DHCP-assigned to a static IP address.
The initial network configuration is shown in Figure 27
. The IP address that is assigned is 192.168.200.8. The 
network administrator has provided a range of static IP addresses in the same subnet, which begin with 
192.168.200.100. In this case, the default gateway and DNS servers remain the same for static or DHCP-
obtained addresses (verify if this method is true in your case with your network administrator).
Figure 27 - Initial Network Configuration
To change the new address, from the IP_Address_Obtain pull-down menu choose Static, type in the new IP 
address, and click Apply Changes.

IMPORTANT You can change the network configuration from the USB or network web 
pages. If you change the IP address from the network web interface, browse 
to the new IP address to re-establish communication.
