Configuration is done mainly via a web interface. For this purpose connect a
network cable to the LAN port of the Smart 216. This must be done before
powering on the Smart 216.
7. Setting network parameters via the OSD
By default, Smart 216 boots with an automatically assigned IP address from a
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server on the network. The DHCP
server provides a valid IP address, gateway address and subnet mask.
You can identify the IP address from the OSD. Also where there is no DHCP
server set the IP address via the OSD as follows:
1. From the local keyboard, press left Shift twice. The OSD Main window
appears.
2. Press F2. The Settings window appears see Figure 8.
