IP Address 
Default  192.168.126.254 
Options  IP address (e.g., “192.168.1.1”) 
Description  This field is for the IP address that will be assigned to your NPort device server. An IP 
address is a number assigned to a network device (such as a computer) as a permanent 
address on the network. Computers use the IP address to identify and talk to each other 
over the network. Choose a proper IP address that is unique and valid in your network 
environment. If your device server will be assigned a dynamic IP address, set the IP 
configuration parameter appropriately.
