Ethernet Settings Descriptions
Parameter Description
Enable DHCP Check this check box if you want the IF61 to get its IP address from a
DHCP server.
If this check box is not checked, you need to specify the IP address,
subnet mask, and IP router for your network.
IP Address IP address of the IF61. The IP address has the form x.x.x.x, where x is a
number from 0 to 255.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned IP address appears in this
field.
If DHCP is disabled, specify the IP address in the entry field.
Subnet Mask Subnet mask for this network. The subnet mask has the form x.x.x.x,
where x is a number from 0 to 255.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned subnet mask appears in this
field.
If DHCP is disabled, you may need to specify the subnet mask for the
network.
Router IP address of the router. The IP address has the form x.x.x.x, where x is a
number from 0 to 255.
If DHCP is enabled, the currently assigned router address appears in this
field.
If DHCP is disabled, you may need to specify the router address for the
network.
Link Local IP Address IP address of the IF61 is only routable on the local IP subnet. The IF61
auto-negotiates with other devices on its Ethernet segment to obtain a
unique address, so no user configuration of the Link Local IP Address is
necessary. The IF61 will always have a Link Local IP Address, even if
another address is assigned through DHCP or statically via user-
configuration.
IPv6 Autoconfigure Enables IPv6 automatic configuration. Clear this check box to disable
IPv6 auto-configuration on the IF61.
Auto-configuration is enabled by default. If you disable auto-
configuration, you need to specify an IPv6 address, subnet mask, and
router.
