Address Devices on the Network
The box labeled Check for Errors will report to you if any devices in the system have mis-
configured IP addresses, or if there are duplicate IQ or HiQnet addresses in the system. If
there are, what happens next is dependent on what Action to Take is selected:
Readdress all devices - this selection will be the default if 10 or more addressing errors
are found in the system. This selection will bring up another page in the wizard where you
can readdress all the devices in the system.
Fix errors individually - this selection will be the default if 1 to 9 addressing errors are
found in the system. This selection will bring up another page in the wizard where the errors
will be listed and you will have the opportunity to fix each error individually.
No action at this time - this selection will be the default if no addressing errors are
found.
Select an Action to Take and click Next.
Readdress All Components
This page gives you the opportunity to assign IP and, optionally, IQ addresses to all devices
in the system. The default values will Assign IP addresses (including Subnet Mask and
Gateway address) that match the addresses assigned to the selected network
adapter in the computer. You can also Assign IQ Addresses by checking the appropriate
box and assigning a range of addresses.
The wizard is able to avoid assigning IP addresses used by other Crown or Harman compo-
nents, but it cannot detect if it has assigned an address that is currently being used by
another computer or TCP/IP device on the network. If you have other computers or devices
on the network, be sure to assign a range of addresses that does not conflict with the
addresses assigned to these network nodes.
Click the Readdress button to initiate the readdress process. The wizard will assign
addresses to, and reboot, each device on the network.
When the readdressing process is finished, click the Back button to check again for errors,
or the Finish button when you are ready to close the wizard.
Fix Errors Individually
This page gives you a list of each error detected in the system. Select the error you want to
fix in the list, then click Fix Error. A dialog will be displayed that will give the opportunity to
change the addresses of the offending device. Clicking OK on this dialog will change the
address on the selected device, reboot that device, and remove the error from the list.
When you are done fixing errors, click the Back button to check again for errors, or the
Finish button when you are ready to close the wizard.
