IPv4 configuration
You can choose between different types of address assignment in the network:
Fixed IP address (static): Assign a permanent IP address, netmask and gateway to the device ("Static"). Use this mode for simple networks with no DHCP server.
DHCP: The measurement device is automatically assigned an IP address at startup. The following fields are automatically filled with the assigned values and are grayed out.
Fixed IP address with ARP test: Assign a permanent IP address, netmask and gateway to the device, and the device will automatically log in to the network with IP and MAC address ("Static Gratuitous ARP").
If you decide to use a fixed IP address, you must configure the following settings: IP address, subnet mask and standard gateway.
