  • Page 12: Part 3: Network Configuration

    PART 3 NETWORK CONFIGURATION 3.1 Network Protocols The iServer can be connected to the network using standard TCP/IP protocols. It also supports ARP, HTTP (WEB server), DHCP, DNS and Telnet protocols. 3.2 Ethernet (MAC) Address MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address.
  • Page 13: Dhcp

    3.3 DHCP DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol enables individual computers or devices to extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server). If the DHCP is enabled on your iServer, as soon as the iServer is connected to the network, there is an exchange of information between DHCP server and the iServer.
  • Page 14: Ip Address

    3.5 IP Address Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address. This IP address is used to build a connection to the iServer. Every computer using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address. It is divided into two portions, the network ID and the host ID.
  • Page 15: Part 4: Operations

    This iServer can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using NEWPORT’s iCONNECT Configuration Software.
  • Page 16: Iconnect Software

    4.1 iCONNECT Software The iServer may also be assigned an IP Address by using the iCONNECT software. Download the iCONNECT software from the website listed in this manual. Install iCONNECT software on a networked PC. This software is compatible with Windows 95, NT, 2000, and XP.
  • Page 17: Setting A New Ip Address Over The Network

    4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network Besides using the iCONNECT software, you may use the iServer’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it. The iServer is shipped with a default IP address of 128.100.101.254 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0.
  • Page 18: Setup And Operation Using A Web Browser

    4.3 Setup and Operation Using a Web Browser • Start your web browser. • In the URL field, type http://eisxxxx using the last four-digits from the MAC address label located on the device if DHCP and DNS are used. If a static IP address is used, then simply type http://x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the iServer’s IP address.

  • Page 40: Appendix Aglossary

    APPENDIX A GLOSSARY User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits long.
  • Page 41 Appendix B IP Address An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes: • A network ID number identifying a network. • A host ID number identifying a computer on the network. All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C •...
  • Page 42: Appendix Cip Netmask

    Appendix C IP Netmask IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID.
