Appendix A - Other IP Setup Methods
As an alternative to the ARP command (described earlier in the Installation section of this
manual), you can set the IP address for your AXIS 2411 using the following method:
Method
AXIS IP Installer
BOOTP
Requiring a BOOTP daemon on your system, this method operates
over the entire network. A request to an active daemon initiates a
search of the boot table to find an entry matching the unit's Ether-
net address. The daemon downloads the IP address to the device if a
match is found.
Notes:
•Make sure the AXIS 2411 is powered up and connected to the network.
•IP Address: Acquire an unused IP address from your Network Administrator, and do NOT use the default
IP address featured in the following examples when installing your AXIS 2411.
•Server Privileges: Although no special privileges are required for Windows 95/98/Me or XP (Home), you
will need Administrator privileges for Windows NT/2000 and XP (Professional). UNIX systems require
Root privileges.
Ethernet/MAC Address: The AXIS 2411 is pre-configured with a unique Ethernet/MAC Address
based upon the serial number printed on the underside label of the unit; where the serial number
typically follows the format 00-40-8c-xx-yy-zz. You need this address to complete the
installation.
