Free IP Address Requirement

With the R4300 BackPack, the default startup configuration is DHCP (Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol), which automatically requests an IP address from your DHCP

server. If you do not have a DHCP server, the R4300 BackPack uses the static IP

address of 192.168.1.251, same as a Blade Switching (BSBP) or Direct Connect

BackPack (DCBP) with an installed Remote Management Card (RMC). This updates

the functionality of the BSBP, which always used a default static IP address and

required configuration.

With the BSBP, each primary Cage with an installed RMC is set to a default static IP

address of 192.168.1.251. Prior to installing a BSBP with RMC, make sure that you do

not have any other devices on your network with this IP address. Instructions for

changing the RMC IP address and network settings are in Remote Management Card

Configuration on page 62 of this manual.
