Configuring the Network
Edit the contents of the fields on this page as appropriate. The fields and their settings are defined in
Table 6-5.
Table 6-5. Basic Setup tab fields
Field Description
Configure A drop-down list you use to specify how this component gets its IP address.
• Select Using DHCP to have the unit request its IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, DNS server and WINS server IP addresses from the DHCP server.
• Select Manually to enter a static IP address and configure the other settings
directly as well.
If you choose Using DHCP, the system will request its IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, DNS server and WINS server IP addresses from the DHCP server. In this
case, the rest of the address fields on this page are filled in automatically.
Note: If you are changing from a static IP address to use DHCP, do not change the
values in the following fields (e.g. IP address or default gateway). They will be
cleared and reset appropriately when you submit your changes.
Hostname A fully qualified hostname for this system of no more than 50 characters. Assigning
a hostname is optional.
The hostname must be fully-qualified, for example: acserver.ca.xyzcorp.com. The
DNS at your site must be able to resolve the hostname to the IP address you select,
with both forward and reverse lookups. If you enter a hostname that cannot be
resolved, you may not be able to access the unit.
Note: HP recommends creating a hostname. Using a hostname prevents client
users from getting SSL warnings about an unknown SSL certificate when they first
access the logon page.
Domain Name The name of the domain in which this system resides, for example xyzcorp.com.
This will be used as the default domain, and appended to any host names that are
not fully-qualified.
DHCP Server IP
(Appears only if this is an
Access Controller or
Integrated Access Manager)
IP address of an external DHCP server used to provide real IP addresses for
clients.
This is required only if the DHCP server is not on the same subnet as this Access
Controller or Integrated Access Manager, and is not reachable through a DHCP
forwarding router.
Leave blank if the DHCP server is on the same subnet as this Access Controller.
Note: You must enter a DHCP server IP address if you plan to specify IP subnet
ranges for individual ports on the Advanced Setup page.
The following fields should be filled in only if you have selected Manually for the Configure setting. If you selected
Using DHCP, these will be filled in automatically.
IP Address The IP address of this 700wl Series system component.
Note: If you have selected Using DHCP above, you cannot modify this field.
Subnet Mask The subnet mask that defines the subnet for this unit.
Note: If you have selected Using DHCP above, you cannot modify this field.
Gateway The IP address of the gateway (default router) to the network
Note: If you have selected Using DHCP above, you cannot modify this field.
Primary DNS The IP address of the primary DNS server
