Assigning the Card's IP Address

2.1.1.1

DHCP

The Liebert IntelliSlot Unity card is factory-configured for DHCP. If a Static or BootP network configuration
is required, change the Boot Mode as described in Static IP on page 8. Connect an RJ-45 cable to the
card and it will receive an IP address from the DHCP server. Contact the DHCP administrator to obtain the
IP address using the Liebert IntelliSlot Unity card's MAC address. The MAC address is printed on the
card's faceplate.
If the DHCP administrator is not available or there is no way of
determining the IP address assigned by the DHCP server, use a
computer with a direct Ethernet connection to the Liebert IntelliSlot
Unity card, and the Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address convention
described in 2.1.2 - Connect an Ethernet Cable to access the card's
Web page and configure the card. To see the card's last DHCP-
assigned IP address, click the Communications tab, then on the left
side menu select Support > Active Networking. The table of
information will show the last IP address assigned by the DHCP
server. The card may retain that IP address when it reconnects to the
DHCP network because most DHCP systems reuse the same IP
address for the same device.
