Setting IPv4 Address Automatically

Return to Overview

If you use a network environment which can automatically assign IP addresses, such as a network with a router (a DHCP server), you can set the machine to automatically obtain an IPv4 address. In this setting, the machine will automatically obtain an IP address after being connected to the network for a few moments.
The default setting is <Off>.


Remark
  • The IP address currently assigned to the machine may be changed when the server or machine is restarted. In these cases, check the IP address and make the necessary settings. Additionally, most routers have functions that can assign specific IP addresses even under a DHCP environment. Use of these functions are recommended.
