43 Network configuration
IPv4/IPv6
Depending on how the devolo Magic 1 WiFi mini
is connected to the Internet (IPv4 or IPv6), current
network information is displayed, such as Address,
Subnet mask, Standard gateway and DNS server.
4.6.2IPv4/IPv6 configuration
In the factory default settings, only the Get IP con-
figuration from a DHCP server option for IPv4 is
enabled. This means that the IPv4 address is retrie-
ved automatically from a DHCP server. The current-
ly 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 Get IP configuration
from a DHCP server option enabled so that the
devolo Magic 1 WiFi mini automatically receives
an address 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.
Then, restart the devolo Magic adapter (see Chap-
ter 4.7.3 Configuration) to ensure that your chan-
ges take effect.
