TRAKKER Antares 246X Stationary Terminal User's Manual
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Purpose:
If your DCS 300 is operating as a DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) client,
the server's IP address will change each time the server is turned on. By enabling
DHCP on the 2461 terminal and saving the changes in flash memory, the terminal can
locate and use the server's new IP address. The terminal's IP address stays constant and
must be assigned to the terminal by your system administrator.
Before you can enable DHCP on the 2461, you need to configure the network
parameters for the 2461 terminal, including the Controller IP Address. The IP address
for the server can be any valid IP address. The IP address does not need to be the actual
IP address for the server, because the 2461 terminal will locate and reset the IP address
after you enable DHCP.
Important: After you enable or disable DHCP, you must save the configuration in
flash memory for the change to take effect.
