19 7 Network 7.1 Basic Settings The network settings of the device can be configured manually or automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. In order to avoid network conflicts, you should clarify if intended network settings are permitted. In particular, the allocation of an already used IP address may result in malfunctions. ¾¾Open the Network settings dialogue via Network > Basic settings... Fig. 7-1 Default Factory Settings Connection type: automatic Get IP settings from DHCP: deactivated IP address: Netmask: Gateway: Allow IP-Finder network configuration: activated NOTICE Incorrect settings may result in the device being no longer available via the network. ¾¾Contact your network administrator for more information and assistance. ¾¾For troubleshooting purposes, write down the MAC address and all new settings before changing the configuration. ¾¾Note the explanations below. 19

20 Connection Type This setting defines the transfer rate and the duplex mode. The Connection type > automatic (Autonegotiation) is sufficient for most applications. Domain Name System (DNS) Since IP addresses are rather difficult to remember, you can also refer to devices by their host names which allows you to locate the devices or hosts more easily on the LAN (Local Area Network). The mapping of host names to their corresponding IP addresses is handled by the socalled Domain Name Service (DNS server required). In addition, IP address mapping can also be stored directly in the hosts file on your local computer. The Host-Name (or more appropriately the short host name) specifies the name of the machine itself (e.g. myhostname). The Domain name is usually the network domain within your LAN associated with your company and department (e.g. example.com or intranet.example.com). Host names are resolved by special DNS servers (known as name servers ). Resolving host names into IP addresses requires the assignment of a primary name server (DNS-Server 1, e.g. ns1.example.com) and, for reasons of reliability and availability, a secondary name server (DNS-Server 2, e.g. ns2.example.com). For example, to refer to the device by its long host name or fully qualified domain name (FQDN), you can simply use myhostname.example.com. Depending on the DNS server or hosts file settings, you can also refer to the device by simply using its short host name (hier myhostname). Search domains (max. 5 allowed, separated by spaces) are useful if a defined alarm host or UTC time server is not located in your specified domain name. 20

21 7.2 Manual Configuration If no DHCP server is available in your LAN or if you want to assign the network settings manually, proceed as follows: ¾¾Pay attention to the designated and valid IP address ranges in your network. ¾¾Ensure that the Get IP settings from DHCP checkbox is deactivated. ¾¾Enter the IP address you want to assign to the device. ¾¾Enter the Netmask. ¾¾Enter the Gateway address. ¾¾If required, configure the available DNS settings (as described above). ¾¾Deactivate the Allow IP-Finder network configuration 1 checkbox if not required. ¾¾Finally, confirm with OK. The connection to the device is terminated and the new network settings are assigned. 7.3 DHCP To have a DHCP server assign the network settings automatically, proceed as follows: ¾¾Ensure that an active DHCP server is available in your local area network (LAN). ¾¾Activate the Get IP settings from DHCP checkbox. ¾¾If required, configure the available DNS settings (as described above). To send the Host name to the DHCP server, deactivate the Get host name from DHCP checkbox and enter a specific host name. ¾¾Deactivate the Allow IP-Finder network configuration checkbox if not required. ¾¾Finally, confirm with OK. The connection to the device is terminated and the new network settings are assigned by the DHCP server (pay attention to the lease duration). The newly assigned network settings can be determined by the MAC address of the device using the IP-Finder or on the DHCP server. The IP-Finder must be executed in the same LAN in which the device is located. 1 IP-Finder: Dallmeier software for the determination and configuration of network-compatible Dallmeier devices 21
