These are the networking rules:
USB will always choose a subnet dierent to Ethernet.
Both interfaces will try to obtain the 169.254.0.0 range, but Ethernet has priority.
172.16.0.0/16 is USB’s fallover subnet if Ethernet has already taken it by either: DHCP, xed, or link-local IP
acquisition.
To change the readers network settings:
From the Tools menu in the ReaderManager select
System then Conguration System. Click the Network Conguration
tab.
If the reader is to be assigned an IP address from a DHCP server click the Obtain an IP address automatically check box.
To assign a static IP address, uncheck the check box and enter the IP address in the IP address text box. The box will turn
red if the IP address is not valid.
Care should be taken not to duplicate IP addresses on your network. If you are unsure what IP address to use
consult your system administrator.
Enter the network Subnet mask and Default gateway addresses in the text boxes provided.
Click the Save button to save these changes to the reader, or click the Refresh button to restore the last saved values.
