The section describes Ethernet IPv4 connection with the reader.
Obtain IPv4 Address via DHCP - The reader supports both automatic TCP/IPv4 configuration via DHCP and manual configuration. The DHCP button turns DHCP on and off.
If
Obtain Address Via DHCP
is turned on, this window displays actual current values of the reader's IPv4 address, subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server, and domain name search. Because these are obtained from the DHCP server, they cannot be changed manually. If DHCP is turned off, you can set the following values for these fields.
Current IPv4 Address - IP address (in dotted notation) at which the reader is assigned.
IPv4 Subnet Mask - Subnet mask (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network in which the reader resides.
IPv4 Default Gateway - Default gateway (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network in which the reader resides.
IPv4 DNS Server - DNS server (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network in which the reader resides.
Domain Name Search- The domain name for which a reader is assigned.
You must select the arrow button to update the network configuration. If saving changes is unsuccessful, the system indicates the problem and allows correcting it by repeating the operation. DHCP and IP address updates are immediately applied.
