The easiest method for assigning an IP address to the digital sender is by entering it
directly at the control panel. You can also assign an IP address using a DHCP or BOOTP
server. You might be more familiar with assigning IP addresses to network devices from a
DHCP or BOOTP server. In this scenario, you prepare the device attached to the network,
make an entry for it on the DHCP or BOOTP server, and then turn the device on. The

You can let the digital sender time out to a default IP address. In fact, this happens
