AD007 User Manual

Setting up a DHCP/BOOTP Server

The purpose of a DHCP (Dynam ic Host Configuration Protocol) or

BOOTP (Boot Protocol ) server is to issue IP addresses to devices or

clients on the net work that request the m. Once t he IP addresses are

properly assigned, the network servers can then allow other

communications to take place.

A DHCP or BOOTP server can also provide all the other network

parameters to the AD007 adapter including time servers, DNS,

gateway, netmask, and so on.

When the server receives a DHCP/BOOTP request from the AD007

adapter, it recognizes the hardware Ethernet address of the adapter,

maps the Ethernet address to an IP address, and then offers t his IP

address back to the adapter.

The factory default settings of the AD007 Adapter enable the

DHCP/BOOTP request. This greatly simplifies the initial operation,

but requires some network configuration.

The proce ss for configuring the DHCP or BOOTP server varies from

system to system. Adding the AD007 to the server ’s list of clients is

usually just a matter of making an entry in a file or using a manager

utility.

There a re two wa ys that the server can be c onfigured to give the

AD007 a dapte r an IP address:

H Static. The server assigns the same IP address each time the

adapter makes a DHCP/BOOTP request

H Dynamic. The server offers a different IP address each time the

adapter makes a DHCP/BOOTP request

If possible, use the static configuration. This makes it easier to

access the AD007 adapter with a known IP address. If DNS is set up,

however, you can access the AD007 by using the host name instead

and it is not a s important to have a static IP address.
