Network Setup - Emerson Dixell X-web300 Operation Manual

2.3.7 NETWORK SETUP

By clicking "Network Setup" is possible to
customize all network settings. The
default IP is 192.168.0.150, if you change
it, please refer to this new number each
time you encounter the default IP inside
this manual.
The next window allows you to setup the
network. You can choose "No network", it
means you will not be able to reach your
XWEB using intranet/lan access. This is
an uncommon situation. On the other side
if you check the radio button "fixed
network", you have to fill in the blank
labels. We suggest you, before
proceeding, to contact your network
administrator to get help.
IP ADDRESS: you need this unique
number to identify your XWEB. There are
2 kind of IP numbers: private and public
ones. The first are usually used to setup
an intranet/lan where all clients do not
need to be reached from outside. We can
compare this situation to a close
environment: communication is possible
only among IP belonging to this private
range. For example IP numbers
192.168.xxx.yyy defines a private
network.
NETWORK MASK: is just like a filter, 255.255.255.0 means XWEB can directly reaches only PCs belonging
to its own IP range. All other requests will be sent to a valid gateway.
GATEWAY ADDRESS: You have to compile this field with a valid gateway IP number. Gateway machines
are a kind of portal through which all data that can not directly reach the target IP, is sent.
PRIMARY/SECONDARY DNS: In the internet world you can reach a web server using its name, for example
www.dixell.com, by typing the name into your web-browser address bar. Due to the protocol used to
guarantee performance and security, all names are converted into IP numbers. This operation is made by a
DNS server. Usually your ISP or your network administrator can provide you a valid DNS number. DNS are
also mandatory to use e-mail and the internet upgrade procedure.
Webserver port number: use it to set a different port number for the web server. In the example the new
address to go to XWEB500 is http://192.168.0.150:8080
DHCP Server: use it to force Ethernet network configurations from XWEB. This parameter is usually
disabled and please enable this function only after consultancy by network administrator.
