The reader supports automatic IP configuration of the Bluetooth interface.
When a Bluetooth client is connected to the reader, the reader's IPV4 address, subnet mask, IPV6 address, and prefix length are viewable. These settings are automatically configured and cannot be changed manually.
Bluetooth configuration is available on fixed readers only.

DHCP Start Address
- the starting address of the DHCP IP range where an IP is assigned to the connecting device.
DHCP End Address
- the end address of the DHCP IP range out of where an IP is assigned to the connecting device.
The DHCP IP range specified as the DHCP start address and DHCP end address determines the IP of the reader's Bluetooth interface.
The first two octets of the reader Bluetooth interface's IP address are taken from the specified IP range, and the last two octets are formed using the reader BD address.
