IPV4

The reader supports both automatic TCP/IP configuration via DHCP, and manual configuration. The first button turns DHCP on or off, depending on current state.

If DHCP is turned on, actual current values of the reader's IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server are displayed on this page. Since these have been obtained from the DHCP server, they cannot be changed manually.

If DHCP is turned off, you can set values for these fields:

• IP Address (in dotted notation) at which the reader is assigned.
• Subnet Mask (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network the reader resides in.
• Default Gateway (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network the reader resides in.
• DNS server (in dotted notation) appropriate for the network the reader resides in.
• MAC Address - Specifies the MAC address of the reader.

Note: DHCP and IP address changes do not get affected until the reader is rebooted.
