Assigning an IP Address AXIS 240 Users Manual
20
Before you begin
Make sure the AXIS 240 is powered up and attached to the network.
IP Address
Acquire an unused IP address from your Network Administrator.
System Privileges
You will require root privileges on your UNIX system and
administrator privileges on the Windows NT servers.
Ethernet Address
Depending on the method you are using, you will need to know the
Ethernet address of your AXIS 240. The Ethernet address is based
upon the serial number found on the underside label of the unit.
Important!
❏ Do not use the default or example IP address when installing your
AXIS 240. Always consult your Network Administrator before
assigning an IP address.
Mapping a Host Name
to the IP Address
If you are using host names, you can map a unique host name to the
acquired IP address. Refer to your system manuals or to your Network
Administrator for intructions on how to perform the name mapping
on your particular system.
Note:
❏ If the host name has not been included in the system host table,
you can still perform the following instructions on how to
download the IP address. In this case, simply replace the host
name entry with the IP address wherever required.
