Assign an IP Address

These procedures describe how to assign an IP address using the Network Settings page. For complete information about all of the fields and the operation of this page, refer to Network Settings.

  1. From the Dominion KSX Local Console, choose Device Settings > Network. The Network Settings page opens.

    KSX II LocalPort network settings

  2. Specify a meaningful Device Name for your Dominion KSX device. You can use up to 16 alphanumeric characters, special characters, and no spaces.
  3. Select the IP auto configuration from the drop-down list:
  4. If you specify an IP configuration of None, enter the TCP/IP parameters for your Dominion KSX device: IP address, Subnet mask, Gateway IP address, Primary DNS server IP address, and (optional) Secondary DNS server IP address.
  5. When finished, click OK.

Your Dominion KSX device is now network accessible.

Note: In some environments, the LAN Interface Speed & Duplex setting default of Autodetect (auto-negotiation) does not properly set the network parameters, resulting in network issues. In these instances, setting the Dominion KSX LAN Interface Speed & Duplex field to 100 Mbps/Full Duplex (or whatever option is appropriate to your network) addresses the issue. Refer to Network Settings for more information.
