Configuring The Module Chain With Dhcp - HEIDENHAIN MSE 1000 Operating Instructions Manual

8.1.7

Configuring the module chain with DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can be used to dynamically assign IP
addresses to MSE 1000 modules. A router with DHCP enabled must be connected
between the workstation and the MSE 1000 base module. The DHCP server will
assign each module a unique IP address. MSE 1000 modules are set to use DHCP
by default.
Use DHCP to assign the workstation IP address to avoid duplicate
addresses. Refer to the PC's Operating Instructions to configure the
workstation to use DHCP .
DHCP router configuration
To configure a DHCP router:
Connect to the router through the router utility. This is usually a web browser.
Refer to the documentation provided with the router for instructions.
Set the IP address of the router to a unique value on the 172.31.46 subnet. Do
not use 172.31.46.1 or 172.31.46.2, these are reserved for the modules when
set to factory defaults.
Set the netmask to 255.255.255.0.
Verify the gateway acts as a DHCP server.
Set the address range starting and ending address so that they do not include
172.31.46.1 or 172.31.46.2.
Set the lease time to Forever.
Disable SNTP if it is a feature of the router.
DHCP module chain configuration
To configure the module chain using DHCP:
All modules must have DHCP enabled to perform this operation.
Further Information:
Clear the DHCP router IP address lookup table. Refer to the router operating
instructions for details.
Install the first power supply module, base module, and up to 8 additional
modules.
