software is able to attach to the LAN obtain an IP address and see other devices on this net-

administrator for an IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway that are appropriate for
your network. Ensure that there are no addressing conflicts. If you see more than one

a distinct IP address and Node Address. When this is done and all network conflicts are
resolved, close the Networking Wizard and the ZonePRO Designer application.
