PC Properties
Name If adding a new PC to the list, enter its name here. It is best if this
matches the PC's "hostname".
IP Address Select the appropriate option:
•
Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob-
tain an IP address automatically"). The TEW-431BRP will
allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP
address could change, but normally won't.
•
DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set
to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that the TEW-
431BRP will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC.
Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the
other fields must match the TEW-431BRP.
•
Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static)
IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must
be configured to use this IP address.)
