and wish to proceed with the Web configuration, do not power off the
unit or your DHCP server, since the Server Remote Control might
lease a different IP address. Should this happen, reexamine the DHCP
log to verify the IP address again.
NOTE: DHCP functionality is not affected if you also connected the
WAN port on the SV1115IPEXT to your network (see below). However,
it is not recommended that you connect both the WAN and LAN ports
to the same network segment.

Web Configuration Using Static IP

Since some networks rely on static IP addresses (every device has a
pre-configured IP address that does not change), the DHCP access
method described above is not applicable in those situations. To
accommodate this type of installation, the WAN port on the rear panel
of the SV1115IPEXT is factory-configured with its own IP address.
NOTE: If you connected the LAN port on the rear panel of the unit to
your network but did not connect the WAN port, you must disconnect
the Ethernet cable from the LAN port and move it to the WAN port
before attempting a static IP installation. (If desired, you can return the
cable to the LAN port if you configure it with a static IP address during
the configuration process.) If you have connected both the LAN and
WAN ports on the unit to your network, you may proceed with a static
IP Web configuration.
The following are the default values for the WAN port, configured at the
factory:

IP Address: 192.168.1.123

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.254

Broadcast: 192.168.1.255

To access the Web configuration for this product, you will need
to configure the workstation you are using to the same subnet
(255.255.255.0) and also assign it a valid IP address (i.e.
192.168.1.100). For details on how to change the IP address of your
computer (if necessary), consult your documentation or System
