Setting IPv4 Address

 
The machine's IPv4 address can be either assigned automatically by a dynamic IP addressing protocol, such as DHCP, or entered manually. When connecting the machine to a wired LAN, make sure that the connectors of the LAN cable are firmly inserted into the ports (Connecting to a Wired LAN). You can test the network connection if necessary.

Tap <DHCP>, <BOOTP>, or <RARP>.

If you do not want to use DHCP/BOOTP/RARP to assign an IP address
Select <Off>. If you select <DHCP>, <BOOTP>, or <RARP> when these services are unavailable, the machine will waste time and communications resources searching the network for these services.

Check that <Auto IP> is set to <On>.
If <Off> is selected, change the setting to <On>.
4
Tap <Apply>.
IP addresses assigned via DHCP/BOOTP/RARP override the address obtained via Auto IP.

Check that <Auto Acquire> is set to <Off>.
If <On> is displayed, tap <Auto Acquire>, and set both <Select Protocol> and <Auto IP> to <Off>.

Specify the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address (or default gateway).
Specify the settings in the following order: <IP Address>  <Subnet Mask>  <Gateway Address>.
Enter each setting using the numeric keys, and tap <Apply>.
