W&T Assigning/Changing IP Parameters
In DHCP mode the remaining lease time in seconds together
with the current IP address is displayed on the Web page Doc r
Properties.

If after the assigned lease time has expired the DHCP
server cannot be reached, the USB-Server deletes the IP
address and reverts to the factory default address
190.107.233.110 and starts the cyclical search for alternate
DHCP servers. All existing connections to W&T USB Port
Redirectors are closed. To prevent problems of this kind we
recommend configuring the lease time in the DHCP server to in-
finite whenever possible.
3.2.5 Reserved IP addresses
The USB-Server is designed as a TCP server and therefore
provides services which can be used as needed by computer-
side USB Port Redirectors. In order to open a connection these
need of course the current IP address of the USB-Server, so that
it makes sense to reserve a particular IP address for the USB-
Server on the DHCP server. This is generally done by linking the
IP address to be assigned to the unique Ethernet address of
the USB-Server, which can be found on the sticker on the
housing.

3.2.6 Dynamic IP addresses
Fully dynamic address assignment, where the USB-Server gets
another IP address after each restart or after expiration of the
lese time, only makes sense in network environments with
automatic cross-connection between the DHCP and DNS
