IP Addressing

The recommended setting for devices connecting to Zentra is
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
. When using DHCP, ensure that the DHCP has the correct default gateway and DNS address configured. These settings are critical for the device to connect outside the network (gateway) and to resolve the Zentra address to an IP address (DNS).
If you prefer to reserve IP’s for your devices, we would recommend using
DHCP with reservation
 as opposed to statically addressing devices. With that said, static addresses
can
 be used with devices connecting to Zentra.
When assigning static addresses, ensure all of the following items are configured with the correct address:
  1. IP Address
  2. Subnet Mask
  3. Gateway
  4. DNS Address
Contact your network administrator for help configuring your network.
