IP Address Report

When NPort 5600 series products are used in a dynamic IP environment, users must spend more

time with IP management tasks. For example, if NPort works as a server (TCP or UDP), then the

host, which acts as a client, must know the IP address of the server. If the DHCP server assigns a

new IP address to NPort, the host must have some way of determining NPort’s new IP address.

NPort 5000 series products help out by periodically reporting their IP address to the IP location

server, in case the dynamic IP has changed. The parameters shown below are used to configure the

Auto IP report function. There are two ways to develop an “Auto IP report Server” to receive

NPort’s Auto IP report.

1. Use NPort Administrator’s IP Address Report function.

2. “Auto IP report protocol,” which can automatically receive the Auto IP report on a regular

basis, is also available to help you develop your own software. Refer to Appendix E for the

“Auto IP report protocol”.
