Appendix C. NL240 Settings
IP Address
The IP address uniquely identifies this node on an internet. If DHCP is
enabled, this is the IP address obtained from the DHCP server. If DHCP is
disabled, a static IP address must be obtained from your network administrator
for use with this device. (It is recommended to configure a static IP address.)
In bridge mode, this setting is obtained from the datalogger and
cannot be edited here. It must be edited in the datalogger settings.
If the setting has been successfully obtained from the datalogger,
this setting will show “OK”; otherwise, it will show “0.0.0.0”.
Subnet Mask
The Subnet Mask is used to select that portion of the IP address which
identifies the network. It is used to facilitate routing and should be obtained
from the network administrator along with the IP address. If DHCP is enabled,
this is the Subnet Mask obtained from the DCHP server.
In bridge mode, this setting is obtained from the datalogger and
cannot be edited here. It must be edited in the datalogger settings.
If the setting has been successfully obtained from the datalogger,
this setting will show “OK”; otherwise, it will show “0.0.0.0”.
Default Gateway
Datagrams being sent to an unknown network are routed via the Default
Gateway. This entry specifies the Internet address of the Default Gateway. If
no Default Gateway exists, set this entry to “0.0.0.0”. If DHCP is enabled, this
is the Default Gateway obtained from the DCHP server.
In bridge mode, this setting is obtained from the datalogger and
cannot be edited here. It must be edited in the datalogger settings.
If the setting has been successfully obtained from the datalogger,
this setting will show “OK”; otherwise, it will show “0.0.0.0”.
Name Servers
This setting specifies the addresses of up to three domain name servers that the
device can use to resolve domain names to IP addresses. Note that if DHCP is
used to resolve IP information, DNS addresses obtained via DHCP will
override this list.
IP Info
Reports the IP address, network mask, and default gateway of the network
interface. If DHCP is used, this setting will report the values configured by the
DHCP server.
