Recommended Network Configuration

Note
This section provides you with information on basic network configuration.
Basic network settings can be derived from a DHCP server or entered
manually through TCP/IP Setup.
Using DHCP the device requests and obtains an available IP address from a
DHCP server. The device also obtains other parameters such as the default
gateway, subnet mask, DNS server, Time server and other IP parameters from
the DHCP server.
Using manual TCP/IP Setup the IP addresses and other networking
parameters are entered manually through the web based Administration
Page. The static IP addresses are unique, provided and managed by your
system administrator.

• "Assigning DHCP Server Reservations"
When configuring a KWS6000 Solution, it is strongly recommended to
configure:
• KWS6000 using static IP address
• Media resources using DHCP
• Base stations using DHCP
When using DHCP on base stations and media resources, the KWS6000
must have either a static IP address or IP address reservations assigned to
the DHCP server.
