Table 10 IP Addressing and the NBX System
Local IP Environment
No IP networking currently in
use
CAUTION: Do not set your computer address to 192.168.1.192 because this IP address is used
temporarily during system startup. If you use that address for your computer, a conflict results and
the system may not start properly.
Private IP network, no subnets
If the connection attempt fails, check the browser's Proxy Server setting
and verify that it is configured for a direct connection. Also, check the
Connection setting and verify that it is set for a direct LAN connection,
not a dial-up connection.
After you connect, you can log in to the NBX NetSet utility using the
default administrator user name and password.
CAUTION: If you change the administrator password, you cannot retrieve
(return) to the default, nor can you retrieve your new password if you
forget it. If you make any password changes, record them in a safe place.
Table 10 describes possible network environments and the configuration
needed to enable IP connectivity to the NBX system.
NBX System Configuration
You do not need to change the IP settings in the NBX system, but you probably
need to configure the IP settings in the computer that you use to communicate
with the NBX NetSet utility.
The computer must have an Ethernet NIC card, IP connectivity software installed
and configured, and a web browser. See the computer's operating system
documentation for how to install and configure IP connectivity software.
Set the computer's IP parameters to these settings:
IP address: 192.168.1.191
■
Default gateway: 192.168.1.1
■
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.224
■
If you connect the LAN to the Internet in the future, your Internet service provider
gives instructions on how to configure the IP settings of devices on the network.
You must change the IP settings of the NBX system at that time.
You probably need to change the NBX system IP address to conform with the
existing IP addressing scheme.
You must change the NBX system IP address (192.168.1.190) if that address is
already in use on the network.
