Name 
If adding a new PC to the list, enter its name here. It is best if this 
matches the PC's "hostname". 
IP Address 
Select the appropriate option: 
• 
Automatic - The PC is set to be a DHCP client (Windows: "Ob-
tain an IP address automatically"). VRT-311 / VRT-311S will 
allocate an IP address to this PC when requested to do so. The IP 
address could change, but normally won't.  
• 
DCHP Client - Reserved IP Address - Select this if the PC is set 
to be a DCHP client, and you wish to guarantee that VRT-311 / 
VRT-311S will always allocate the same IP Address to this PC.  
Enter the required IP address. Only the last field is required; the 
other fields must match VRT-311 / VRT-311S 's IP address.  
• 
Fixed IP Address - Select this if the PC is using a Fixed (Static) 
IP address. Enter the IP address allocated to the PC. (The PC must 
be configured to use this IP address.)
