Network Types - GE Digi-4 Installation Manual

Network types

There are three network types, LAN, DHCP, and ADSL. Each
type requires different settings.
LAN
To use the LAN option when connecting your Digia to a network,
the following information is required. If you do not have this
information, see your network administrator.

Subnet mask
DHCP
To use the DHCP option when connecting your Digia to a
network, select this option. An IP address is automatically
assigned by the DHCP server, which assigns IP addresses and
other parameters to new devices automatically. To see what your
IP address is, you can find it by selecting Description from the
System menu.
If your network connection doesn't allow additional IP addresses,
you will need to use an IP sharing device. In this case, select
LAN as the Network Type. You will also need to configure your
IP sharing device for port forwarding to allow for a network
connection. For more information on port forwarding, see the
documentation for your IP sharing device, or your network
administrator.
