18.4.2 IP Configuration Page of the BHM
An example of a BHM IP Configuration screen is displayed in Figure 92.
Figure 92: IP Configuration screen, BHM
You may set the following IP Configuration page parameters.
LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, IP Address
Enter the non-routable IP address to be associated with the Ethernet connection on this
module. (The default IP address from the factory is 169.254.1.1.) If you set and then
forget this parameter, then you must both
1. physically access the module.
2. use an override plug to electronically access the module configuration
parameters at 169.254.1.1. See Overriding Forgotten IP Addresses or
Passwords on AP, SM, or BH on Page 302.
RECOMMENDATION:
Note or print the IP settings from this page. Ensure that you can readily
associate these IP settings both with the module and with the other data
that you store about the module.
LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, Subnet Mask
Enter an appropriate subnet mask for the BHM to communicate on the network. The
default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. See Allocating Subnets on Page 123.
