The VG248 fully supports 10/100 Mbps half- and full-duplex Ethernet. If you
choose auto-negotiation, the VG248 automatically adjusts to the speed and duplex
mode of the switch to which it is attached. This is the default and recommended
setting.
Follow these steps to configure the VG248 as your network requires:
From the main menu, choose Configure.
Choose Network interface.
Choose Ethernet.
Choose the option that matches the setting on the switch to which the VG248 is
connected:
auto-negotiation
•
•
100Mb/s half duplex
100Mb/s full duplex
•
10Mb/s half duplex
•
10Mb/s full duplex
•
Restart the VG248.
If you are using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) in your network,
the VG248 automatically obtains an IP address when you connect it to the
network. Although the VG248 uses DHCP by default, you can disable DHCP and
manually assign an IP address to the VG248.
To use DHCP, perform these steps:
From the main menu, choose Configure.
Choose Network interface.
