4.2 Ethernet Installation and Setup

Installation of an NGC in a network environment may be implemented using the
following instructions. Some decisions may require input from the network
administrator.
PCCU32 communication with the NGC over an Ethernet connection (TCP/IP)
requires the use of a hub, switch or router (see
communication in a remote area may also be utilized.
PCCU32 makes use of the Windows DHCP Utility. Dynamic host configuration
protocol (DHCP) can randomly assign a unique IP address within the defined
subnet mask. This utility also allows the user to define a more user-friendly
network ID. This ID must be unique within the subnet mask; however, a new IP
address may be automatically assigned to the NGC if the NGC's power is cycled.
For this reason, it may be preferable to disable the DHCP.
Disabling the DHCP requires that a unique IP address be assigned, generally by
the network administrator.
