DHCP radio buttons
The DHCP On radio button directs the switcher to ignore any entered IP addresses
and to obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server (if the network is DHCP capable). The DHCP Off radio button turns DHCP
off. Contact the local system administrator to determine if DHCP is appropriate.
IP Address field
The IP Address field contains the IP address of the connected switcher. This value
is encoded in the switcher's flash memory.
Standard IP protocol consists of addresses comprised of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit
numeric subfields, properly called octets, separated by dots (periods). Each field
can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3 digits total per
field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with
other equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid
value.
N IP address changes can cause conflicts with other equipment. Only local system
Gateway IP Address field
The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail
server to be used if the switcher and the mail server are not on the same subnet.
Standard IP protocol rules apply to the Gateway IP address
Subnet Mask field
The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the switcher is on the same
subnet as the mail server when you are subnetting. For more information, see
"Subnetting — A Primer", in appendix A, "Ethernet Connection".
MAC Address field
The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hardcoded in the switcher and cannot
be changed.
Firmware field
The Firmware field identifies the installed firmware version. This field is
hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be changed.
Model field

hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be changed.
Part Number field
The Part Number field identifies the part number of your switcher (60-969-01). This
field is hardcoded in the switcher and cannot be changed.
