TCP/IP
IP Address
IP address for the ADE-4300/ADW-4300, as seen from the local
LAN. Use the default value unless the address is already in use
or your LAN is using a different IP address range. In the latter
case, enter an unused IP Address from within the range used by
your LAN.
Subnet Mask
The default value 255.255.255.0 is standard for small (class "C")
networks. For other networks, use the Subnet Mask for the LAN
segment to which the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 is attached (the
same value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
DHCP Server
· If Enabled, the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 will allocate IP Ad-
dresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN when they start
up. The default (and recommended) value is Enabled.
· If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-
configured to treat the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 as the default
Gateway. See the following section for further details.
· The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the
values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Ad-
dresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the
number of DHCP clients supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
DHCP
What DHCP Does
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server allocates a valid IP address to
a DHCP Client (PC or device) upon request.
· The client request is made when the client device starts up (boots).
