Ethernet Communications (Optional)
Explanation
The following TCP/IP settings must be entered to use the Ethernet communications
functions on the DL7400.
IP address
Subnet mask
Default gateway
IP Address (Internet Protocol Address)
You can assign an IP address to the DL7400. The default setting is 0.0.0.0.
The IP address is an ID that is assigned to each device on an IP network such as the
internet or an intranet. The address is a 32-bit value expressed using four octets (each 0
to 255), each separated by a period as in 192.168.111.24. Obtain an IP address from
your network administrator. The setting is automatically configured in environments
using DHCP.
Subnet Mask
You can set the mask value used when determining the subnet network address from
the IP address. The default setting is 255.255.255.0. Huge TCP/IP networks such as
the Internet are often divided up into smaller networks called sub networks. The subnet
mask is a 32 bit value that specifies the number of bits of the IP address used to identify
the network address. The portion other than the network address is the host address
that identifies individual computers on the network.
Consult your network administrator for the subnet mask value. You may not need to set
the value. The setting is automatically configured in environments using DHCP.
Default Gateway
You can set the IP address of the gateway (default gateway) used to communicate with
other networks. The default setting is 0.0.0.0. The default gateway has control functions
that handle protocol exchanges when communicating with multiple networks, so that
data transmission is carried out smoothly.
Consult your network administrator for the default gateway value. You may not need to
set the value. The setting is automatically configured in environments using DHCP.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DCHP is a protocol that allocates setup information that is needed temporarily to PCs
connecting to the network. When DHCP is turned ON, the following settings are
automatically assigned.
IP address
Subnet mask
Default gateway
DNS
To use DHCP, the network must have a DHCP server. Consult your network
administrator to see if DHCP can be used. When DHCP is turned ON, different settings
may be assigned each time the power is turned ON. When using the FTP server
function (see section 13.6), be sure to check the IP address and other settings of the
DL7400 using a PC or workstation each time you turn ON the DL7400.
