Caution To prevent data loss and to maintain the integrity of your Ethernet installation, do not use a cable longer than 100 m. The first time you power up the chassis, it attempts to initiate a DHCP network connection. If the chassis is unable to initiate a DHCP connection, it connects to the network with a link- local IP address with the form .
