Configuration Brief Guide to Initial Configuration For the initial configuration you can connect the PC to the OpenCom 100 via the Ethernet port. The TCP/IP network protocol is used to set up a connection via one of these ports. You can then open the Web console of the OpenCom 100 and call up the Configurator from there. Note: To avoid problems with existing network installations, the OpenCom 100's DHCP server is designed for static address assignment in its factory settings. The OpenCom 100's IP address is always 168.99.254 in its factory settings. 7.1 Brief Guide to Initial Configuration Setting up a first connection is quite simple with a standard Windows PC: 1. Connect the PC's network card with one of the OpenCom 100.'s LAN ports Use a cross-wired Ethernet cable to do this. You can also use an uncrossed Ethernet cable for a connection via a LAN port to the OpenCom 130's expansion module. 2. Windows 2000/XP: log on as a user with "Administrator" rights. 3. You will find the IP settings in Windows 2000/XP under Start: Settings: Network connections: Local Area Connection. Open the dialogue box Local Area Connection Properties, and then the dialogue box Internet Protocol TC/IP Properties (see figure: Setting the IP address in Windows XP on page 78). 4. Note down the existing settings so that you can restore them after completing the initial configuration. 5. Change the IP Address to 192.168.99.253. Change the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, confirm with OK and Close. 6. Start a Web browser and in the address field enter "http://192.168.99.254/". The Web console's log-on page will be displayed. Enter the user name "Administrator" without a password for the initial configuration. Note: To support your next configuration steps, you should activate the Assistant mode on the entry page of the Configurator. Please also pay attention to the online help. 77
