NPort 5600 Series User’s Manual Configuring NPort Administrator
5-5
Console
The “Disable” option for Web Console and Telnet Console is included for security reasons. In
some cases, you may want to Disable one or both of these Console utilities as an extra precaution
to prevent unauthorized users from accessing your NPort. The factory default for both Web
Console and Telnet Console is Enable.
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Enable or Disable Enable Required
ATTENTION
If you disable both the “Web Console” and “Telnet Console,” you can still use the LCM Display
to configure NPort locally, or Windows Administrator to configure NPort either locally or
remotely over the network.
Network Settings
You must assign a valid IP address to NPort 5600 before it will work in your network environment.
Your network system administrator should provide you with an IP address and related settings for
your network. The IP address must be unique within the network (otherwise, NPort 5600 will not
have a valid connection to the network). First time users can refer to Chapter 3, Initial IP Address
Configuration, for more information.
You can choose from four possible IP Configuration modes—Static, DHCP, DHCP/BOOTP, and
BOOTP—located under the web console screen’s IP configuration drop-down box.
