Viewing the Settings
1.
Use the cursor keys to select Configuration.
2.
Press SET. The settings appear.
Press ESC to close the setting information.
To use the WT500 Ethernet interface features, you must configure the DHCP, IP address,
subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS settings.
Consult your system or network administrator about these settings.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP is a protocol that temporarily allocates necessary information to a computer so
that it can connect to the Internet. When a DHCP server exists on a network, the server
automatically assigns the information below to PCs and other devices connected to the
network that have DHCP enabled.
IP address
Subnet mask
Default gateway
Broadcast
DNS
• The WT500 can only use DHCP if there is a DHCP server on the network. Ask your
network administrator whether DHCP is available.
• When the WT500 DHCP setting is switched from OFF to ON, it may take tens of
seconds before the IP address can be retrieved.
• Different information may be assigned to the WT500 each time it is turned on. When
accessing the WT500 from a PC using the FTP server feature (see section 11.4), you
must check the WT500 network settings, such as the IP address, each time you turn
the WT500 on.
IP (Internet Protocol) Address
You can set the IP address assigned to the WT500. The default address is 0.0.0.0.
• The IP address is an ID that is assigned to each device on an IP network (Internet or
intranet).
• An IP address is a 32-bit value that is expressed using four octets. Each octet is
separated by a period and has a value from 0 to 255, as in "192.168.111.24."
• Obtain an IP address from your network administrator.
• The IP address is automatically set in networks that use DHCP.
