using an address assigned by a DHCP server.
Before you continue …
… please obtain the following information from the system network administrator:
Available static IP address
This is the unique address your network administrator will assign to
your VersaSync unit. Make sure the chosen address is outside of the
DHCP range of your DHCP server.
Subnet mask (for the network)
The subnet mask defines the number of bits taken from the IP
address that are used in the network portion. The number of network
bits used in the net mask can range from 8 to 30bits.
Gateway address
The gateway (default router) address is needed if communication to
the VersaSync is made outside of the local network. By default, the
gateway is disabled.

address>
