ure the IF2 using the web browser interface from a desktop PC. For help, see

However, if you are not using a DHCP server to assign an IP address, you use a
serial communications program such as HyperTerminal to assign a static IP
address. For help, see the next section, "Assigning an Initial IP Address."
