DX USER IP

35

Warning! Changing the network settings of DX User IP may result in losing the
connection. If you remotely change the settings ensure that all values will give you
access to the DX User IP.

IP auto configuration
Choose between the 3 options.

None – no IP auto configuration. In this case type a static IP address in the
appropriate settings below.

DHCP - When selected, DX User IP will contact a DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) server in the local sub-net to obtain a valid IP address,
gateway address and net mask. Before you connect DX User IP to your local sub-
net, complete the corresponding configuration of your DHCP server.

BOOTP - When selected, DX User IP will contact a BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)
server in the local sub-net to obtain a valid IP address, gateway address and net
mask.

IP address
Static IP address in the usual dot notation.

Subnet mask
The net mask of the local network.

Gateway IP address
In case the DX User IP should be accessible from networks other than the local one,
this IP address must be set to the local network router's IP address.

Primary DNS Server IP address
IP address of the primary Domain Name Server. This may be left empty, however
DX User IP won't be able to perform name resolution.

Secondary DNS Server IP address
This address will be used in case the Primary DNS Server can't be contacted.

Primary Time Server
IP address of the primary NTP (Network Time Protocol) compliant timeserver. DX
User IP will synchronize its own absolute time with the timeserver's one. This is
important for writing log entries and for the Dynamic DNS Service.
