Using a static IP address

1. Navigate to the Network screen.
2. Under Local Area Connection x (where x is the interface number), in the IP Configuration Method list, click static.
3. Click Set to confirm the action.

   You will be asked to log on.

4. Specify your username and password. The default username is superuser; it has no password.

   Further options will be displayed.

   

5. In the IP box, type an IP address.

   Note: The IP address must be unique on the network to avoid conflicts.

6. In the Netmask box, type the network mask for your network.
7. If your subnet is connected to a router, specify the router's IP address in the Gateway box.

   If you have no router, set Gateway to none.

8. If you intend to use a domain name to identify the nControl unit on the network, e.g. www.my_nControl.com, specify the IP address of a DNS on the network, which will resolve the name to an IP address.
9. Click Set to confirm the action.
