4 PC Network Configuration and Login
4.1 PC Network Configuration
Each network interface on the PC should either be configured with a statically defined IP address and DNS address, or be instructed to automatically obtain an IP address using the network DHCP server. MG7540 provides a DHCP server on its LAN and it is recommended to configure your LAN to automatically obtain its IP address and DNS server IP address. The configuration principle is identical but should be carried out differently on each operating system. The following displays the TCP/IP Properties dialog box on Windows 7.
