6 Enter a Group Name for this Network Jack. This can be any name you wish. With
the Central Configuration Manager, you can perform management tasks on all
Network Jacks with the same group designation.
7 Select the method the NJ200 should use to obtain an IP address. The NJ200 can
either get an IP address from an existing DHCP server on your network or you can
directly specify the address. If you elect to specify your own address, you should
enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway information in the
appropriate fields.
NOTE: By default, the NJ200 is configured to automatically obtain an IP address
from a DHCP server. If no DHCP server exists, or if the NJ200 cannot obtain an
IP address, it will default to the IP address 192.168.1.252.
8 If you wish, check the box next to Lock IP Address. Selecting this option will
ensure that the Network Jack will always use a particular address.
WARNING: If you lock an IP address and reserve it for this Network Jack, make
sure you configure your DHCP server so it won't distribute that address to other
devices.
9 Click the Configure button and the Local Configuration Manager will ask you to
enter the password for the device. If you haven't changed the password, you
should enter the default password, which is "password" (without the quotes).
Your changes are sent to the NJ200 and will become effective immediately.
Those are the only steps required to initialize your NJ200 Network Jack.
If you want to change the default password of the NJ200 or manage it from an
SNMP console, you can configure these settings from either the Local
Configuration Manager or the Central Configuration Manager (covered in the
next chapter). In the Local Configuration Manager, both settings are found under
the Advanced tab.
