Ip Address Assignments - Eaton Power Xpert Gateway Series 1000 Card User Manual

GETTING STARTED

IP Address Assignments

Many IT managers prefer the convenience of DHCP for managing the IP
addresses of networked devices. With DHCP, the IT managers can
easily reassign IP addresses as the network structure changes. In some
cases, DHCP may not be available, or fixed IP addresses may be
preferred for the PXGX Series 1000 Card (for example, if some other
networked device needs to reach the card at a fixed address).
To verify the IP addresses assigned through DHCP, continue to
"Verifying IP Addresses (DHCP enabled)." To manually enter fixed IP
addresses for the card's network connection, continue to "Assigning IP
Addresses (DHCP disabled)," on page 11.
NOTE By default, the PXGX Series 1000 Card requests an IP address via DHCP when
connected to a network.
