5.5 Network Setup-IP Address Configuration

In order to configure a fixed IP address, you will need to access the KVM switch in one of four ways; Local Console, IP Installer, Browser or
Non-Browser Clients.

5.5.1 Local Console

Note: The local console OSD only allows you to configure IPv4 network
settings. For IPv6, access the Web Management Interface or Remote
Session OSD.
1. When accessing the KVM switch for the first time, a prompt
will appear asking for a Username and Password. The default
Username is administrator, and the default Password is
password. For security purposes, it is strongly recommended
that you change the username and password on this account
to something unique. When you have entered your username
and password, the OSD will appear with the following page
displayed.
2. Press the [F4] key to bring up the OSD Admin page.
3. In the OSD Admin page, highlight SET IP ADDRESS and press the [Enter] key.
4. DHCP – The first field allows you to enable or disable DHCP . When enabled, the KVM is assigned an IP address by the DHCP server. This
setting is enabled by default. To disable the DHCP setting and set up a fixed IP address, press the [Spacebar] key. Once the DHCP is
disabled, you will be allowed to edit the remaining fields in the SET IP ADDRESS screen.
5. In the remaining fields, enter in the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway you want to assign to the KVM switch.
6. Press the [Esc] key to exit the SET IP ADDRESS screen, and to pull up a prompt asking if you wish to save the settings you just entered.
If you do not wish to save the settings, press the [N] key. If you do wish to save the settings, press the [Y] key. Upon pressing the [Y] key,
the settings will be saved and the KVM will be reset.

5.5.2 IP Installer

The CD that comes with the product includes a Windows-based IP
Installer utility that can be used to obtain and edit the IP address
assigned to the KVM. To use the IP Installer utility, the computer
you are using must be running a Windows operating system, and
must be on the same network as the KVM. Also, the IP Installer
setting in the Network page of the Web Management Interface
must be set to Enabled, which it is by default (see the Network
settings section in this manual for details).
Note: The IP Installer settings can only be accessed via the browser-based
Web Management Interface. They are not accessible in the Remote OSD.
1. Save the IP Installer.exe file from the CD to a desired location on
a computer that is on the same network as the KVM.
2. Locate the IP Installer.exe file that you just saved and double-
click on it. A screen similar to the one below will appear:
( continued )
3. Select your KVM from the Device List.
Note: If the list is empty, or your device doesn't appear, click the
Enumerate button to refresh the Device List. If there is more than one
device in the list, use the MAC address on the bottom of your unit to
determine the desired device.
4. To assign a fixed IP address, check the Use the following IP
address checkbox and fill in the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and
Default Gateway fields with information appropriate for your
network (IPv4 or IPv6).
5. Click the Set IP button to apply the changes to the unit. The new
IP address will appear in the Device List.
6. Click the Exit button to exit the IP Installer utility.
