Assigning the IP using DHCP protocol

DHCP protocol is activated by the factory default settings,
so that in network environments dynamic IP assignment is
sufficient for connecting the Com-Server to the network. The
following parameters can be assigned using DHCP:
•
IP address
•
Subnet mask
•
Gateway address
2�2�1 Manual activation of DHCP

ges, DHCP protocol is automatically deactivated when using
all other methods for assigning the IP parameters. The follo-
wing methods are then available for later activation of DHCP.
