Ethernet

Configuring the autoloader’s Ethernet interface typically

involves specifying the library’s IP address, subnet mask, and

gateway address.
ƒ

IP address—Used to route information from the autoloader to

the server. You can choose between dynamic

(server-assigned) or static (user-assigned) addressing for the IP

address.

ƒ

Subnet Mask—Used to route information to designated

devices within the network.

ƒ

Gateway address—Allows information to be routed outside

the subnet.

Network

Addresses

This allows you to select the method used to set the Internet

Protocol (IP) address for the library, as follows:
ƒ

Static—The library uses a fixed IP Address, which is assigned

in the IP Address option.

ƒ

DHCP—The library uses an IP address assigned by the

network DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

server.
