Description
BOOTP Client Select On or Off. At boot up the XPort Pro will
attempt to obtain an IP address from a BOOTP
server.
Notes: Overrides the configured IP address, network
mask, gateway, hostname, and domain.
When DHCP is On, the system automatically uses
DHCP, regardless of whether BOOTP Client is On.
DHCP Client Select On or Off. At boot up the XPort Pro will
attempt to lease an IP address from a DHCP server
and maintain the lease at regular intervals.
Note: Overrides BOOTP, the configured IP address,
network mask, gateway, hostname, and domain.
IP Address
Enter the XPort Pro static IP address.
You may enter it alone, in CIDR format, or with an
explicit mask.
The IP address consists of four octets separated by a
period and is used if BOOTP and DHCP are both set
to Off. Changing this value requires you to reboot the
XPort Pro.
Note: When DHCP is enabled, the XPort Pro tries to
obtain an IP address from DHCP. If it cannot, the
XPort Pro uses an Auto IP address in the range of
169.254.xxx.xxx.
Default Gateway
Enter the IP address of the router for this network. Or,
clear the field (appears as <None>). This address is
only used for static IP address configuration.
Hostname
Enter the XPort Pro hostname. It must begin with a
letter, continue with a sequence of letters, numbers,
and/or hyphens, and end with a letter or number.
Domain
Enter the XPort Pro's domain name.
DHCP Client ID
Enter the ID if the DHCP server uses a DHCP ID. The
DHCP server’s lease table shows IP addresses and
MAC addresses for devices. The lease table shows
the Client ID, in hexadecimal notation, instead of the
XPort Pro MAC address.
Primary DNS
IP address of the primary name server. This entry is
required if you choose to configure DNS (Domain
Name Server) servers.
