Warning!
The initial IP configuration is usually done directly at the host system using
the special procedure described in Section 1.2 Using The IP Configuration
Setup Tool.
Changing the network settings of the IP console might result in losing
connection to it. In case you change the settings remotely make sure that all
the values are correct and you still have an option to access the IP console.
• Network Basic Settings
o IP auto configuration: With this option you can control if the IP console should fetch its
network settings from a DHCP or BOOTP server. For DHCP, select “dhcp,” and for
BOOTP select “bootp” accordingly. If you choose “none” then IP auto configuration is
disabled.
o IP address: IP address in the usual dot notation.
o Subnet Mask: The net mask of the local network.
o Gateway IP address: In case the IP console should be accessible from networks other
than the local one, this IP address must be set to the local network router's IP address.
