CLI Ethernet

In the network configuration all parameters related to the network interfaces can be

changed. In the first section you can change the hostname and domain name. You can
also specify two nameservers. In the nameserver fields you may enter an IPv4 address.

IPv4 addresses are built of 32 bits, which are grouped in four octets, each containing 8
bits. You can specify an IP address in this mask by entering four decimal numbers,
separated by a point “.”.

Example: 192.168.10.2

Additionally you can specify the IPv4 Netmask and your default gateway address.

Please contact your network administrator, who will provide you with the settings
suitable for your specific network.

If you are running a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server in your
network, the LANTIME system can obtain its IPv4 settings automatically from this
server. If you want to use this feature (you should also ask your network administrator
if this is applicable in your network), you can change the DHCP Client parameter to
“ENABLED”. This is the default setting.

If the DHCP client has been activated, the automatically obtained parameters are
shown in the appropriate fields (IPv4 address, netmask, gateway).
