for most environments. By selecting Static IP, you can manually set the IP address,
netmask, gateway, and DNS (Domain Name Service) server IP address.

To configure the network settings:

1. Click the Network button on the Basic Mode home page.

2. In the Network Mode drop-down menu, select a network mode. Selecting DHCP

automatically from the local DHCP server. Selecting Static IP as a network
mode requires you to enter IP information such as IP address, Default Gateway,
and DNS Servers.
