DHCP Server Over Ethernet Port

You can configure the Com’X so that it assigns IP addresses to the network.

In that case, the Com’X configures its Ethernet interface Eth2 with the IP address 10.25.1.1.

The Com’X also starts an internal DHCP server. It enables you to assign automatically an IP address, consistent with its own address, to any devices connected to the same network and configured to operate as DHCP clients.

IP addresses assigned by the Com’X are in the subnetwork 10.25.1.0/24 (starting from 10.25.1.65, 10.25.1.66, and so on). The Com’X has no routing capabilities. As a result, no Default Gateway nor Domain Name Server are sent by this DHCP server.

The IT administrator of the site should be contacted to confirm that the network where the Eth2 interface of the Com’X is connected:

  • is separated from the rest of the site network installation.
  • does not disturb another DHCP server.
