The menu already displays the IP address. If you want to change it, at the IP Address prompt, type the new address, pressing Enter after each octet. The IP address must be set to a unique value in your network. To learn more about IP addressing, see the User Guide for your IAP Device Server.

At the Netmask prompt, accept the default or type the number of bits taken from the IP address that are assigned for the host section. Press Enter. Standard Class A: 24 bits; Standard Class B: 16 bits; Standard Class C: 8 bits. The IAP Device Server prompts for the number of host bits to be entered, then calculates the subnet mask. The subnet mask displays in standard decimal-dot notation (for example, 255.255.255.0) when the saved parameters display. 5. You can prevent unauthorized access to the setup menu via a Telnet connection to port 9999. At the Change Telnet configuration password prompt, type Y (Yes) and press Enter.
