Network settings
The available settings depend on the selected network service.
When using a DHCP service, the device automatically receives the IP address from the DHCP server. Therefore, when DHCP is selected as the network service, the IP address and subnet mask are inactive and cannot be edited. In addition, the option of a static IP address can be used as a fallback. The device can be reached at the static address as soon as the DHCP service is not available. To do this, the static IP address and the subnet mask must be entered.
When configuring the network settings manually, the IP address, subnet mask and gateway must be entered.
The IP addresses of the DNS servers (Domain Name System) must also be entered. These assign the domain names to the IP addresses. This is required for KentixONE-GO, for example.
IEEE 802.1X
To establish a connection to a network protected with 802.1X, port authentication must be activated. The user name and password for authentication using the EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) authentication method can then be entered. If the password has already been hashed by the authentication server, the “Password is already hashed” function must be activated. Finally, the settings must be saved.
Authentication methods other than EAP are currently not supported.
