Automatic configuration

We recommend that you carry out a manual
configuration of your terminal. The automatic
configuration of the local network settings may be
considered, if your local network features a DHCP
or BOOTP server that can dynamically assign
addresses to the peripheral devices present on the
LAN.
To automatically configure the local network
settings:
271 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IP CONFIG.
1 Choose Automatic and press OK to confirm.
The terminal scans the local network for a
DHCP or BOOTP server that can assign it its
settings dynamically (the message Self-conf
is displayed).
2 Once the message Self-conf has
disappeared, check for the IP Address, Sub-
network mask and Gateway address. If
these are missing, you should carry out a
manual configuration (see below).

Manual configuration

To configure your terminal manually, you should
obtain the usual information used to set a
peripheral device (IP address, sub-network mask,
network and gateway address).
To configure the local network setting manually:
271 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IP CONFIG.
1 Choose Manual and press OK to confirm.

IP address

272 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/ADRESSE IP
1 Enter the IP address of your terminal and
press OK to confirm.

Sub-network mask

273 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/MSK SS RES.
1 Enter the sub-network mask of your terminal
and press OK to confirm.

Gateway address

274 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/PASSERELLE
1 Enter the IP address of the network gateway
and press OK to confirm.
IEEE Address (or Ethernet address)
or MAC address
275 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/IEEE ADDRESS
The Ethernet card of your terminal already has an
unmodifiable, yet consultable, IEEE address.

NetBIOS names

These names, which can be used with the network
options, are used to identify your terminal
machine from a PC connected to a local network
(for instance with the name "IMP-NETWORK-1").
276 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1
277 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 2
1 Enter the selected name (15 characters
max) and press OK to confirm.

Server Names

The WINS1 and WINS2 servers, used with the
network options, allow access to terminals on
other sub-networks by means of their NetBIOS
name.
278 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1
279 - SETUP/LAN ETHER/NETBIOS 1
1 Enter the IP address of each server, then
validate with OK.
If the terminal is set up in Automatic
configuration mode (menu
addresses can be filled in automatically
by certain DHCP servers.
