IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485
ATTENTION
In Dynamic IP environments, the firmware will retry every 30 seconds, up to three times, until network
settings are assigned by the DHCP or BOOTP server. The timeout for each try increases from one second, to
three seconds, then to give seconds.
If the DHCP/BOOTP server is unavailable, the firmware will use the default IP address (192.168.1.110),
netmask, and gateway as IP settings.
DNS server 1/DNS server 2
Setting
E.g., 192.168.1.1
(IP addresses in the
form of x.x.x.0 and
x.x.x.255 are invalid.)
When a user wishes to visit a website, the computer will request a Domain Name System (DNS) server for the
website's correct IP address, and then the computer uses the response to connect to the web server. DNS is
how Internet domain names are identified and translated into IP addresses. A domain name is an alphanumeric
name, such as weidmueller.com, which makes it easier for people to remember. A DNS server is a host that
translates this kind of text-based domain name into numeric IP address to be used for establishing a TCP/IP
connection.
In order to use the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485's DNS feature, you need to configure the DNS server. Doing so
allows the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 to use a host's domain name to access the host. The
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 provides DNS server 1 and DNS server 2 configuration items to configure the IP
address of the DNS server; DNS Server 2 is included for use when DNS sever 1 is unavailable.
The IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 acts as a DNS client by actively querying the DNS server for the IP address that
is associated with a particular domain name. IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 functions that support domain name
are Time server, Destination IP Address in TCP Client mode, Mail Server, SNMP trap server, and Auto
report to IP.
SNMP Settings
Community name
Setting
1 to 39 characters
A community name is a plain-text password mechanism that is used to weakly authenticate queries to agents
of managed network devices.
Contact

(E.g., Support,
+49 5231
14-0)
The SNMP contact information usually includes an emergency contact name and telephone or pager number.
Location
Setting
1 to 39 characters
(E.g., Floor 1, office 2)
Specifies the location string of SNMP agents, such as the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485. This string is usually set
to the street address where the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 is physically located.
