Setting Description
Manual The IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway must be configured manually.
Click Next>>, and enter the new values.
BOOTP A BOOTP server provides the TCP/IP settings. At 32-second intervals, the Main
Module requests network assignment from any BOOTP server:
• If the Main Module receives a valid response, it starts the network services.
• If the Main Module finds a BOOTP server, but the request to that server fails or
times out, the Main Module stops requesting network settings until it is restarted.
• By default, if previously configured network settings exist, and the Main Module
receives no valid response to five requests (the original and four retries), it uses the
previously configured settings so that it remains accessible.
Click Next>> to access the BOOTP Configuration page to change the number of
retries or the action to take if all retries fail
1
:
• Maximum retries: Enter the number of retries that will occur when no valid
response is received, or zero (0) for an unlimited number of retries.
• If retries fail: Select Use prior settings (the default) or Stop BOOTP request.
DHCP At 32-second intervals, the Main Module requests network assignment from any
DHCP server. By default, the number of retries is unlimited.
• If the Main Module receives a valid response, by default it requires the APC cookie
from the DHCP server in order to accept the lease and start the network services.
• If the Main Module finds a DHCP server, but the request to that server fails or times
out, the Main Module stops requesting network settings until it is restarted.
To change these values, click Next>> to access the DHCP Configuration page
1
:
• Require vendor specific cookie to accept DHCP Address: Disable or enable the
requirement that the DHCP server provide the APC cookie.
• Maximum retries: Enter the number of retries that will occur when no valid
response is received, or zero (0) for an unlimited number of retries.
1 The default values for these three settings on the configuration pages generally do not
need to be changed:
•Vendor Class: APC
•Client ID: The MAC address of the Main Module, which uniquely identifies it on the local area
network (LAN)
•User Class: The name of the application firmware module
