Using Set Device IP
To reduce the effort required to set up IP addresses, the EDS-518A series comes equipped with
DHCP/BOOTP server and RARP protocol to set up IP addresses of Ethernet-enabled devices
automatically.
When enabled, the Set device IP function allows EDS-518A to assign specific IP addresses
automatically to connected devices that are equIPped with DHCP Client or RARP protocol. In
effect, EDS-518A acts as a DHCP server by assigning a connected device with a specific IP
address stored in its internal memory. Each time the connected device is switched on or rebooted,
EDS-518A sends the device the desired IP address.
Perform the following steps to use the Set device IP function:
STEP 1—set up the connected devices
Set up those Ethernet-enabled devices connected to
EDS-518A for which you would like IP addresses to
be assigned automatically. The devices must be
configured to obtain their IP address automatically.
The devices’ configuration utility should include a
setup page that allows you to choose an option
similar to Obtain an IP address automatically.
For example, Windows’ TCP/IP Properties window
is shown at the right. Although your device’s
configuration utility may look quite a bit different,
this figure should give you some idea of what to look
for.
You also need to decide to which of EDS-518A’s
ports your Ethernet-enabled devices will be
connected. You will need to set up each of these ports
separately, as described in the following step.
STEP 2
Configure EDS-518A’s Set device IP function, either from the Console utility or from the Web
Browser interface. In either case, you simply need to enter the Desired IP for each port that needs
to be configured.
STEP 3
Be sure to activate your settings before exiting.
• When using the Web Browser interface, activate by clicking Activate.
