6.1.2.6 Configuring a module

If you click an entry in the list, the Primary Setup Tool displays information on the selected

device in the right-hand pane.

Procedure

Follow the steps below to configure a device:

1. Click on the plus symbol in front of the device symbol or double-click on the device

symbol to display all interfaces of the device.

2. Click on the interface you want to configure. The Primary Setup Tool displays the input

dialog for the configuration data in the right-hand pane of the program window.

Depending on the selected settings, some text boxes or check boxes may be disabled.

The MAC address box is always disabled because this address is a property of the

device that cannot be modified. The Client ID parameter and DNS is also not supported

by the IE Switch X-200.

3. Decide how the device will obtain its IP address:

– Dynamically from a DHCP server:

Select the Obtain IP address from DHCP server option button.

– Manual assignment by the user:

Select the Assign IP parameters option button.

4. Make the following entries if you have decided to assign the IP address manually:

– Enter the IP address for the device in the IP Address box. In each subarea separated

by periods, you can enter a number between 0 and 255, other entries are rejected by

the program.

– Enter the subnet mask in the subnet mask box.

– When necessary, select the Router check box and enter the IP address of the router

in the relevant text box. The information on the router is necessary if the computer

with which you are creating the configuration is not in the same subnet as the device

you are configuring.
