How to Configure IPv4 Parameters

In the hardware installation (
UTN server then checks if it receives an IPv4 network configuration (IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS - Do-
main Name Service) dynamically over DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). If this is not the case, the UTN
server assigns itself an IP address via Zeroconf from the address range which is reserved for Zeroconf (169.254.0.0/
16).
Important:
If the UTN server is connected to an IPv6 network, it will automatically receive an
additional IPv6 address  24.
The IPv4 address assigned to the UTN servers can be found via the SEH UTN Manager software tool. This step usu-
ally is carried out during the initial set up (
As an alternative to automatic configuration via DHCP or Zeroconf, you can assign a manual (static) IPv4 network
configuration to the UTN server.

Description
Enables/disables the DHCP protocol.
If DHCP is enabled in your network, IPv4 network configuration (IP address,
subnet mask, gateway, DNS) is automatic.
We recommend disabling this option once an IP
address has been assigned to the UTN server.
Enables/disables the ARP/PING protocol.
You can use the commands ARP and PING to change an IP address. The imple-
mentation depends on your system; read the documentation of your operating
system.
