OnCell 5000 Series Initial IP Address Configuration

3-2

Static and Dynamic IP Addresses

Determine whether your OnCell 5000 needs to use a static IP address or dynamic IP address (either DHCP or

BOOTP application).

• If your OnCell 5000 is used in a static IP environment, you must assign a specific IP address using one of

the tools described in this chapter.

• If your OnCell 5000 is used in a dynamic IP environment, the IP address will be assigned automatically from

over the network. In this case, set the IP configuration mode to DHCP or BOOTP.

ATTENTION

Consult your network administrator on how to reserve a fixed IP address for your

OnCell 5000 in the MAC-

mapping table when using a DHCP Server or BOOTP Server. For most applications, you should assign a fixed

IP address to your

OnCell 5000.

Factory Default IP Address

The OnCell 5000 is configured with the following default private IP address:

192.168.127.254

Note that IP addresses that begin with “192.168” are referred to as private IP addresses. Devices configured

with a private IP address are not directly accessible from a public network. For example, you would not be able

to ping a device with a private IP address from an outside Internet connection. If your application requires

sending data over a public network, such as the Internet, your OnCell 5000 will need a valid public IP address,

which can be leased from a local ISP.
