Static IP or DHCP Client
If you select DHCP client the network IP address and sub-net mask must be provided by
a DHCP server on that network. If you select Static IP address you must specify a unique
IP address and a sub-net mask.
DHCP Server Settings.
On LAN ports 3 and 4 you can choose to run a DHCP server. Select the check box DHCP
Server. The DHCP server settings are only displayed and can be selected when the port
mode is set to Static, otherwise the DHCP server settings are not shown. The DHCP start
and end addresses must be on the same network as the port's static IP.
DNS setup
If you have access to a Domain Name Server (DNS) you can specify the address of the e-
mail server by using the server name instead of its IP address. This can be used in
Outgoing mail server in E-mail setup on page 5-25. You may statically specify the
address of one or two DNS. Select the DNS source as static and fill in IP address or
addresses.
5-24
Make sure that the networks do not use IP address ranges that overlap.
The host name is used for identifying the ACU in local networks and
in e-mail reports. The default host name is acu. You can change the
name. Letters (a-z), digits (0-9) and hyphen (-) are allowed as legal
characters.
Note: The host name must start with a letter.
This network is connected to the GMU. LAN port 1 mode is always
Static (static IP address).
LAN port 2 is used for Internet access or Inmarsat Network Service
Device (NSD).
LAN port 3 is dedicated as the service port. By default this port has the
IP address http://192.168.0.1; the current value can be displayed in the
ACU display. In a 19" rack mount it is recommended to connect LAN
port 3 to the front port (via rear connector, see the figure ACU
(connector panel) on page 3-1), for access to the service port from the
rack front.
LAN port 3 can be set to the mode Static or Switched with port 1,
DHCP server can be selected (default) or DHCP client.
LAN port 4 can be used to connect to the vessel's LAN.
LAN port 4 mode can be set to Static, DHCP client (default) or
DHCP server.
