Virtual CD/DVD Server - DiscZerver

Set the IP Address
The Virtual CD/DVD Server will acquire an IP address dynamically, using DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP. If these options are not available on the network, the unit will default to an IP address of 10.10.10.10. The unit's status light will slowly blink amber if the default IP address is in use. To manually assign an IP address, use the following steps from the Administrator's workstation.

There are two methods that may be used to assign the IP Address of the Virtual CD/DVD Server: using a Web Browser or using the ZerverView software.

Web Browser

1. Open the workstation web browser. Enter the default name of the Virtual CD/DVD Server in the browser's address field. The end of the Virtual CD/DVD Server's name will be the node address portion of the IP address that will be assigned to the unit. For example http://Zxxxxxx_NN or http://Z123ab4_25. The setup utility home page will open.
2. You will be required to login to the Virtual CD/DVD Server with the default user and password of admin and admin.
3. The Setup Wizard page will open. This utility will not be seen again, unless the server is rebooted to its factory default settings. Make any changes necessary to this screen before clicking on the Next button.
4. The Networks Information page will open. Enter the appropriate information regarding the IP address and the Subnet mask for this unit.
