Configuring the management PC

To configure the local management PC to communicate with the PTP 250, proceed as

Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item as shown in Figure 6-1.

169.254.0.0 and 169.254.1.1 and 169.254.1.2
A good example is 169.254.1.3 (Figure 6-2).

Enter a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
Leave the default gateway blank.
