Frequently asked questions
•
How do I configure the network? 
Auto-Configuration Network Setup: The default setting of the APG is as a 
DHCP client. When the APG is connected to a LAN that already has a DHCP 
server present, the APG takes the IP address assigned to it by the server. 
When the APG is connected to a LAN that does not have a DHCP server, the 
APG becomes the DHCP server in the network.
•
Why doesn't my device obtain an IP address automatically?
The device will ask for an IP address from your enterprise DHCP server 
while booting up, however, sometimes it might fail to obtain an IP address 
in complex network environments. The system will obtain the IP address 
again once there is another DHCP server detected or you can configure 
your device IP address via Network Setup from the web admin page.
