WEB BROWSER-BASED CONFIGURATION
• Local IP address
If you intend to set up your client computers manually (no
DHCP), make sure that the assigned IP address is in the same
range as the default router address and that it is unique to
your private network. However, it is highly recommend to use
DHCP if that option is available on your network. An IP ad-
dress allocation scheme will reduce the time it takes to set-up
client computers and eliminate the possibilities of administra-
tive errors and duplicate addresses. To manually configure
the IP address of the controller, move the cursor bar to Local
IP address item, then reassign the static IP address of the
controller.
• Gateway IP address
A gateway is a node (a router) on a TCP/IP network that
serves as an access point to another network. A default gate-
way is the node on the computer network that the network
software uses when an IP address does not match any other
routes in the routing table.
• Subnet Mask
A Subnet mask is a 32-bit number that masks an IP address,
and divides the IP address into network address and host ad-
dress.

ler, move the cursor bar to “HTTP Port Number” item, then
