Static and Dynamic IP Addresses
Determine whether your OnCell G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 needs to use a static IP address or
dynamic IP address (either DHCP or BOOTP application).
If your OnCell G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 is used in a static IP environment, you must
assign a specific IP address using one of the tools described in this chapter.
If your OnCell G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 is used in a dynamic IP environment, the IP
address will be assigned automatically from over the network. In this case, set the IP
configuration mode to DHCP or BOOTP.
ATTENTION
Consult your network administrator on how to reserve a fixed IP address for your OnCell
G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 in the MAC-IP mapping table when using a DHCP Server or
BOOTP Server. For most applications, you should assign a fixed IP address to your OnCell
G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251.
Factory Default IP Address
The OnCell G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 is configured with the following default private IP
address:
192.168.127.254
Note that IP addresses that begin with 192.168are referred to as private IP addresses. Devices
configured with a private IP address are not directly accessible from a public network. For example,
you would not be able to ping a device with a private IP address from an outside Internet connection.
If your application requires sending data over a public network, such as the Internet, your OnCell
G3111/G3151/G3211/G3251 will need a valid public IP address, which can be leased from a local
ISP.
