2-2 Options for Configuring the IP Address and Mask
Options for Configuring the IP Address and Mask
Options
The PortServer TS 8/16 IP address can be configured using the following methods:
• With Digi Port Authority-Remote, a Digi utility
• By updating the ARP table on a server and then pinging the Digi device (called Ping-ARP)
• From the command line using the set config command
• Using a RARP server
• Using a DHCP server
The IP address and mask can also be changed using the web interface. This method, however, does
not work for the initial IP address configuration.
