IPv4/IPv6
Depending on how
connected to the Internet, current network infor-
mation is displayed, such as Address, Subnet
mask, Standard gateway and DNS server.
4.6.2 IPv4/IPv6
In the factory default settings, only the Retrieve
network settings from a DHCP server option for
IPv4 is enabled. This means that the IPv4 address is
retrieved automatically from a DHCP server. The
currently assigned network data are visible (greyed
out).
If a DHCP server is already present on the network
for assigning IP addresses (e.g. your Internet rou-
ter), you should leave the Retrieve network set-
tings from a DHCP server option enabled so that
the dLAN 550 WiFi automatically receives an ad-
dress from it.
If you want to assign a static IP address, make
entries accordingly for the Address, Subnet mask,
Default gateway and DNS server fields.
Confirm your settings by clicking the Disk icon.
