TCP/IP Setup options
To configure the RIP Station for TCP/IP, choose TCP/IP Setup.
Choose Ethernet Setup and enter the appropriate settings. If your network uses a
gateway, enter the gateway address in Gateway Setup.
When you set an IP address, subnet mask, or gateway address for the RIP Station
during Setup, you can allow the RIP Station to get these addresses automatically from
a DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server. First, turn on or reboot the RIP Station and allow
it reach Idle. Next, make sure the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server is running. Finally,
perform RIP Station Setup.
