Advanced > Use TLS 1.0.
7.2.1 Determine the IP Address
The factory setting of the DHCP mode for the LAN1 port is "automatic", at first power up
it will act as a DHCP client. If the network has a DHCP server, it will assign an IP address to
the IPBS/IPBL. If there is no DHCP server in the network, the IPBS/IPBL can be assigned a
predefined IP address. The factory setting of the DHCP mode is to the fixed IP address
192.168.0.1, see 8.2.1 Set 8.2.1 Set DHCP Mode on page 79.
Note: After the first startup the DHCP mode should be changed from "automatic" to
either "client" or "off", see
8.2.1 Set DHCP Mode on page 79.
This section describes how to determine the dynamically allocated IP address. The address
is used to access the IPBS/IPBL using a web browser. Two methods are described:
• In a Network without a DHCP Server on page 43.
• In a Network with a DHCP Server on page 43.
In a Network without a DHCP Server
If the network does not have a DHCP server, and the DHCP mode is set to "automatic"
(factory default), follow the steps below.
Note: If the IPBS/IPBL has been used before, it must be restored to factory default settings
by performing a long hardware reset, see
8.23 Reset Using the Reset Button on page 138.
1 Connect an Ethernet cable between the IPBS/IPBL and the computer.
NOTE: For IPBS, a power adapter must be used.
NOTE: For IPBL, make sure to use the LAN1 port.
2 Ensure that the computer has an IP address within the same IP address range as the
IPBS/IPBL (192.168.0.1).
3 Perform a hardware reset by shortly pressing the reset button.
The IPBS/IPBL will be assigned the IP address 192.168.0.1 and the netmask
255.255.255.0.
4 Enter http://192.168.0.1 in the browser to access the IPBS/IPBL GUI.
5 After the first startup, do the following:
On the IPBS: Select LAN1 > DHCP
On the IPBL: Select LAN1 > DHCP
6 In Mode drop-down list, change the DHCP mode from "automatic" to "disabled".
In a Network with a DHCP Server
If the network has a DHCP server the IP address is determined following the steps below.
The IPBS’s MAC address can be found on the label on the box and on the label on the
backside. The IPBL’s MAC address can be found on the label on the box. The hexadecimal
numbers (xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx) represent the MAC address.
Note: Make sure to use the LAN1 port for the IPBL.
