Eicon Networks Diva 2440 - Manual (Page 26)

Setup Page 26
However, if your computer is set to acquire its IP address dynamically from a DHCP server, you
need only restart your computer (or reset the IP address manually using ‘winipcfg’ with
Windows 9x or ‘ipconfig /renew’ for Windows 2000/NT). The Diva 2440 will assign the new
address.
Adjusting LAN Settings
The following are further changes you may need to make to your LAN setup. However, due to
the wide range of networking equipment and topologies, these are only guidelines.
If your LAN has a DHCP Server
If your LAN has a DHCP server, configure your DHCP server to return the address of the
Diva 2440 as the ‘Default Gateway’ and ‘DNS Server’ to all clients.
If your LAN uses Static IP Addresses
If your LAN uses static addressing, you must configure the TCP/IP settings on each computer.
Specifically, set each computer’s ‘Default Gateway’ and ‘DNS Server’ settings to the address of
the Diva 2440.
If your LAN has a router
If you have a router on your LAN, it is likely configured as the default gateway for your
computers. In this case, you will need to configure the routing table on your router to re-direct
the appropriate traffic to the Diva 2440.
