Lantronix SLC 8000 Advanced Console Manager Quick Start Guide - Page 2

Both of the SLC 8000 network ports (Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2) default to

DHCP– assigned IP addresses. If you want to assign a different IP address, it

must be within a valid range, unique to your network, and with the same subnet

mask as your workstation.

To configure the SLC 8000, you need the following information:

IP address (if not already assigned): ______ . ______ . ______ . ______

Subnet mask (if not already assigned): ______ . ______ . ______ . ______

Gateway: ______ . ______ . ______ . ______

DNS: ______ . ______ . ______ . ______

The fastest way to set basic network parameters is by using the front panel

keypad and display.

Note:

If you prefer, you can get started by following a Quick Setup script on the

command line interface using Telnet or SSH, or by connecting a terminal directly

to the console (RS-232) port. The web page interface also provides a Quick Setup

page. See

Quick Setup

in the User Guide.
