Setting the IP Address
You can use a Web browser, the IP Installer, or the OSD to configure the
KM0832 for deployment on your local network. Or, you can assign an IP
address from the command line. To use a Web browser to configure the
KM0832 you will need: (1) a computer equipped with a Web browser, (2) an
Ethernet hub with at least 2 ports, and (3) 2 Cat 5 cables.
To configure the network settings via a Web browser:
1. Plug one end of a Cat 5 cable into the Ethernet hub and the other end into
the CONFIGURATION port on the rear panel of the KM0832.
2. Plug one end of a Cat 5 cable into the Ethernet hub and the other end into
the network adapter of a computer equipped with a Web browser.
3. Make sure that the computer’s IP address lies within the same subnet as
that of the KM0832. (The default IP address for the KM0832 is
192.168.0.10.) Set the IP address for the computer’s network adapter to
192.168.0.XXX, where XXX represents any value from 1–254 (except 10
and 254, which are reserved for the KM0832). (See Factory Default
Settings, page 136, for a list of the KM0832’s default network settings.)
Note: If you are using a proxy server, you might need to modify your
computer’s proxy server settings before accessing the KM0832.
4. Enter 192.168.0.10 in your Web browser’s address bar. The KM0832
Login Webpage appears.
5. After logging in, assign an IP address that is appropriate for your local
network to the KM0832. (See Network Configuration, page 48).
6. After logging out, restore your computer's network adapter settings back
to their original values.
To configure the network settings via the IP Installer:
Go to the ATEN homepage and select the Webpage that is specific for the
KM0832. From there you can download the IP Installer along with instructions
on how to use it to assign an IP address to the KM0832.
To configure the network settings from within the OSD:
1. From a KVM console, open the OSD. Navigate to the IP ADDRESS SET-
TING screen (see SET NETWORK, page 118).
