Basic Configuration
5.9.2. Network Parameters
In the Text Interface, these parameters are accessed via the main Network Configuration
menu, which can be activated by typing /N (for IPv4 parameters) or /N6 (for IPv6
parameters) and then pressing [Enter]. In the Web Browser Interface, these parameters
are found by placing the cursor over the "Network Configuration" link on the left hand
side of the screen, and then clicking on the "Network Parameters" link in the resulting
fly-out menu.
Note: The IP Address, Subnet Mask, Subnet Prefix, Gateway Address and
DHCP status cannot be changed via the Web Browser Interface. In order to
change these parameters, you must access the VMR/NPS via the Text Interface.
• IPAddress: (Default = 192.168.168.168.)
• SubnetMask: (IPv4 Only; Default = 255.255.255.0)
• SubnetPrefix: (IPv6 Only; Default = undefined)
• GatewayAddress: (Default = undefined.)
• DHCP: Enables/Disables Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. When this option
is "On", the VMR/NPS will perform a DHCP request. Note that in the Text Interface,
the MAC address for the VMR/NPS is listed on the Network Status Screen.
(Default = Off.)
Note: Before configuring this feature, make certain your DHCP server is set up
to assign a known, fixed IP address. You will need this new IP address in order
to reestablish a network connection with the VMR/NPS unit.

Security filter as described in Section 5.9.3. (Default = Off)
Note: In the Web Browser Interface, IP Security parameters are defined via the
IP Security Submenu, which may be accessed via the Network Configuration
Menu.

Static Route functions as described in Section 5.9.4. (Default = Off)

via the Static Route Submenu, which may be accessed via the Network
Configuration Menu.
• DNSServers: Provides access to a submenu that is used to define Domain Name
Server parameters as described in Section 5.9.5. (Default = undefined)
