Base configurationFP Web-Server V2.810 EN 455.1.1 Ethernet IP addressEvery Ethernet participant must have an individual IP address. This addressmay not be used a second time in the same network. The IP addressconsists of 4 numbers (all numbers must be between 0 and 255, see alsoIP and TCP/ IP (see p. 179)). The first numbers define the networkaddress, the other numbers define the participant's address.The IP address of the FP Web-Server can be fixed or it can be allocateddynamically by using a DHCP-Server.1. In a "self set-up" network (see p. 181) (e.g. with only one switch), youcan assign the fixed IP addresses yourselfIn many cases a class C network is used. The network is identified by 3numbers. The participants (computers, units, FP Web-Server...) aredistinguished by the last number (1 to 254), e.g. 192.168.206.1 to192.168.206.254.If this network is connected to a second network via a gateway (e.g.the computer for configuration might be in this network), the gatewayaddress also needs to be specified, e.g.:Computer in x.y.206.z network with netmask 255.255.255.0, using thex.y.206.1 gateway.FP Web-Server in x.y.60.z network with the following settings: IP Add=x.y.60.31 Netmask=255.255.255.0 Gateway=x.y.60.12. If the FP Web-Server should be connected to an existing network, thefollowing data must be requested from the network administrator: Is there a DHCP server in the network? If NOT: IP address: Which fixed IP address can be assigned to the FPWeb-Server?P r o c e d u r e
