9.4.2 Set up the IP Address
This section provides an overview of how to set up IP address for DVP-ES3 Series modules. Set up the IP address
before configuring the EIP related parameters or data mapping settings.
9.4.2.1 IP Address Types
The DVP-ES3 supports 3 types of IP addressing, BOOTP, DHCP and static IP address.
Type of IP Address Definition
BOOTP
Uses the TCP/IP Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) to set up the IP address, netmask and
gateway. A BOOTP server may require some configuration. The BOOTP protocol is
designed for a network in which each host has a permanent network connection.
DHCP
Uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to automatically obtain IP address,
netmask, gateway, main computer name and the WINS server.
Static IP You manually set the IP address, netmask and gateway.
9.4.2.2 Set the IP Address (Static IP)
Steps to set the IP address
When using an EIP product with a static IP address, set up the IP address in HWCONFIG in ISPSoft. The following
