3.3 Installation
When installing one or more new LAN Docking
Stations to your network, you can set it up in
one of two ways:
• Use the DHCP service on your network
to assign IP addresses to the LAN Docking
Stations based on the MAC address of each
LAN Docking Station, or
• Set the LAN docking station to a default IP
address to access the configuration interface
and assign a fixed IP address
The LAN Docking has a default configuration
setting to use the DHCP server to obtain its
IP address. This makes it easier to do a batch
installation of several LAN Docking Stations in
a corporate network. See
below for more information.
If your network does not support DHCP,
you can set the LAN Docking Station to use
a default static IP address to get started. See
Installation using the factory default IP address
below for more information.
3.3.1 Installation using DHCP
If your network has a DHCP server, follow
the steps below to install new LAN Docking
Stations:
Make a note of the MAC address of every
1
LAN Docking Station that you are about
to install (The MAC address can be found
on the bottom plate of the LAN Docking
Station).

Installation using DHCP
Configure your DHCP server to assign an IP
2
address to each LAN Docking Station based
on the MAC address of each LAN Docking
Station. Refer to the documentation of your
DHCP server for more information.
Deploy the LAN Docking Stations
3
throughout your organization. Connect each
LAN Docking Station to the main power
supply with the included Philips power
supply. Connect each LAN Docking Station
to a free network socket using the RJ45
network cable.
Open a Web browser on your PC and load
4
the LAN Docking Station configuration
interface for each assigned IP address
to configure the LAN Docking Stations
individually. See Configuration
more information.
D Note
The LAN Docking Station is configured by
default to obtain an IP address from your DHCP
server. If this default setting has been changed,
you must reset the device to its factory default
settings before starting. Read
defaults on page 17 for information on how
to reset the LAN Docking Station to factory
default settings.
E Tip
It is good practice to make a note of the
location and network socket number of
each LAN Docking Station before they are
deployed. You can enter this information into
the comment field of the LAN Docking Station
configuration interface, which will make it easier
on page 9 for
Resetting to factory
