Rack Mounting Procedure
For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet. Mount the MGP Pro in the rack as
follows:
1. Attach the included rack/through-desk mounting brackets to the unit, using eight of the
machine screws supplied with the mounting kit (see figure 43).
2. Insert the unit into the rack and align the holes in the mounting brackets with the holes
in the rack. Use four machine screws to attach the brackets to the rack.

IP Address
What is an IP Address?
An IP address is a 32-bit binary number that is used to identify each device on an Ethernet
network. This number is usually represented by four decimal numbers (called “octets”), each
in the range of 0 through 255 and separated by dots, for example, 198.123.34.240. This is
called “dotted decimal notation.”
An IP address is divided into two parts:
• Network identifier
• Host identifier
Each address on a given network must have the same network identifier value but have a
unique host identifier. As a result, there are different classes of addresses that define the
range of valid addresses and the parts of the address that are used for the network and
host identifiers.
