LABEL DESCRIPTION
LAN IP Setup
Select DHCP to deploy the WX Device as a DHCP client in the network. When you enable this,
the WX Device gets its IP address from the network’s DHCP server (for example, your ISP or
router). Users connected to the WX Device can now access the network (i.e., the Internet if the
IP address is given by the ISP or a router with Internet access). When you select this, you cannot
enter an IP address for your WX Device in the field below.
Select Static IP if you want to specify the IP address of your WX Device. Or if your ISP or network
administrator gave you a static IP address to access the network or the Internet.
IP Address Enter the LAN IPv4 IP address you want to assign to your WX Device in dotted decimal notation,
for example, 192.168.1.2 (factory default).
