When not working on a network with DHCP, each time the IP address of your
Matrox Iris E-Series is changed, regardless of whether Auto IP or static IP is used,
you should clear the DNS resolver cache of your computer.
The DNS resolver cache stores the association between a device's name and its IP
address. Although using the valid IP address of a specific device will always result
in communication with that device, IP addresses are harder to remember than
names.
To clear the DNS resolver cache of your computer, open a command prompt
window and type the following command (on your computer):
IPCONFIG /flushdns

your computer and your Matrox Iris E-Series can resume.
To clear the NetBIOS remote-cache name-table, open a command prompt window
and type the following command (on your computer):
NBTSTAT -R
