3.5 Determination of the IP Configuration

Every Ethernet participant must have an individual IP address. This address may not be used a
second time in the same network. The IP address (see page 166) consists of 4 numbers (0 to
255). The first numbers define the network address, the other numbers define the participant's
address. The IP address of the FP Web-Server can be fixed or it can be allocated dynamically
by a DHCP-Server.

1. In a "self set-up" network (e.g. with only one hub) the IP addresses can be

assigned by yourself

In this case, do not use DHCP. For further information refer to Setup of an
Individual Ethernet LAN (see page 168).

2. If the FP Web-Server is to be connected to an existing network, the following

data must be obtained from the network administrator:

- Is there a DHCP-Server in the network? If NOT:

- IP address: Which fixed IP address can be assigned to the FP Web-Server?

- Netmask: How is the network address set up (length of the network address and/or

the participant's address)?

- Gateway: What is the gateway's IP address? (0.0.0.0 if there is no gateway to be

used).
