Setting up a fixed address as a DHCP Client
You can configure the Com’X so that the IPv4 address is automatically set by the facility DHCP server. The IT administrator of the site can be asked to configure the DHCP server to systematically assign the same IPv4 address to the Com’X.
- Provide the local IT manager with the MAC address of the
Com’X Ethernet port 1.
The address can be found on the label on the front face of the device or in the About page.
- Ask the IT manager to provide a fixed IPv4 address so that
the same IP address is always assigned to the Com’X.
The IP address is to be given by the IT manager.
- Write down the IPv4 address:
-
on the label sheet provided with the Com’X. This sheet can be adhered inside the cover.
-
- Check that the IT manager has added the Com’X to the DHCP server.
It is also possible to log in by entering the IP address provided by the IT manager in the address bar of the browser.
