Configure the Interface Chapter 2
See Figure on page 28 and its accompanying table for switch settings
and their related descriptions.
• Interface Parameters — Use interface parameters for more flexibility
when configuring the IP address. To use parameters as the source for the
IP address, set the rotary switches to 999. Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to
‘1’ (Parameters). The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address
come from the values set using the associated interface 0:302...313.
• BOOTP — Use BOOTP when you want to configure an IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway address for the interface by using a BOOTP
server. To use BOOTP as the source for the IP address, set the rotary
switches to 999. Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘2’ (BOOTP).
Record the interface hardware Ethernet (MAC) address from the
Ethernet address label on the main control board of the drive. This
address is used when configuring the BOOTP server (see Using a
BOOTP or DHCP Server on page 36 for details).
• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Use DHCP when
you want to configure an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address
for the interface by using a DHCP server. To use DHCP as the source
for the IP address, set the rotary switches to 999.
Set 0:300 - [Net Addr Sel] to ‘3’ (DHCP).
Make note of the Ethernet (MAC) address for the hardware interface
that is shown on the Ethernet address label on the main control board of
the drive. The MAC is used when configuring the DHCP server. See
Using a BOOTP or DHCP Server on page 36
for details.
IMPORTANT When using the interface rotary switches, set the IP address before power is
applied because the interface uses the switch settings that it detects when it
first receives power.
TIP If the PowerFlex 755TM, 755TR, or 755TL drive is connected to a Stratix®
6000 or Stratix 8000 managed Ethernet switch and the drive is set for BOOTP
or DHCP mode, the ‘dynamic IP address assignment by port’ (Stratix 6000)
or ‘DHCP persistence’ (Stratix 8000) feature can be used to set the IP address
for the drive. For more details, see the Stratix 6000 Ethernet Managed
Switch User Manual, publication 1783-UM001
, or the Stratix 8000 and
Stratix 8300 Ethernet Managed Switches User Manual, publication 1783-
UM003.
IMPORTANT When the DHCP lease expires, the adapter stops communicating on the
network. A power cycle or option module reset is required.
