string where xxx is the private option number. Factory default is 230.

ipconfig -o -  will disable the configuration portion of the DHCP process.

ipconfig -d Use DCHP to lease an IP address and retrieve network settings.:

ipconfig -a xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -m yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy -g zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address, yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is the subnet mask, and
zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz is the gateway address. (All the information is ignored if DHCP is
enabled.) - To configure a static IP address:

ipconfig -h hostname where hostname is the new hostname. - To change the
hostname of the clock.

would use: timezone -5

Note:
