Teac MX-2424 v1.15 - Manual (Page 14)

ViewNet MX
ViewNet MX Version 1.1/1.5 Owners Manual 14
Reserved IP Numbers
When looking at the network for the next available IP address, the system will only see the IP addresses
in use by MX-2424’s which are turned on and connected to the network, and will not detect the IP
addresses of other host computers running the ViewNet MX application.
The automatic next available IP function views IP host address numbers 1 through 15 as automatically
reserved for computers on the network running the ViewNet MX application. It is therefore
recommended that computers on the ViewNet MX network using the default IP address set the last three
numbers of the IP address to a value between 1 and 15 in order for this scheme to work. This scheme will
only report as available, IP address numbers whose last three numbers have a value of 16 and above and
are not currently being used by an MX-2424.
To summarize, when using the default IP address system for a ViewNet MX network, allocate IP address
numbers according to this plan:
Host Computers 192.168.001.001 through 192.168.001.015
(ViewNet MX application)
MX-2424’s 192.168.001.016 through 192.168.001.254
Errors Setting Next Available IP Address
If the IP address of the computer requesting the next available IP is set to a host address number higher
than 15, the system will not be able to suggest the next available IP number and will give the following
message.
