Server Settings
To configure the Server (WiSpan) settings, select 0 Server from the Change Setup
menu.
The unit’s basic server (network) values display when you select Server (option 0 from
the Change Setup menu). The following sections describe the configurable parameters
within the Server configuration menu.
Network Mode: The network mode (Bridging <One Host>).
Set the IP Address: The unit has an automatically assigned IP address. To assign a
static address, enter it manually. The IP address must be set to a unique value in the
network. Enter each octet and press Enter between sections. The current value displays
in parentheses.
IP Address : ( 0) ( 0) ( 0) ( 0) _
Set the Gateway IP Address: The gateway address, or router, allows communication to
other LAN segments. The gateway address should be the IP address of the router
connected to the same LAN segment as the unit. The gateway address must be within
the local network.
The default is N (No), indicating the gateway address has not been set. To set the
gateway address, type Y. At the prompt, enter the gateway address.
Set the Netmask: A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP address that
are assigned for the host part.
Netmask: Number of Bits for Host Part (0=default) (0)
_
The unit prompts for the number of host bits to be entered, then calculates the netmask,
which displays in standard decimal-dot notation when the saved parameters display (for
example, 255.255.255.0).
