Network Settings
This option is used to configure the unit for connection to an Ethernet network
or dial-up. A pop-up box for configuring the network settings is displayed with
the following items:
System name

MTU

TCP/IP address
Sub net mask
Default gateway

PPP address
System Name
Each D4 on the network can be given a system name to help identification; the
unit name is displayed in the Network Viewing software. A maximum of 30
characters can be used for the system name. The default unit name is 'D4'.
Tip: If you do not want the unit to automatically identify itself on a network, use
a '#' symbol as the first character. You will still able to access the unit across
the network by typing in the IP address directly into the Network Viewing
software.
MTU
The D4 has an additional option for setting the Maximum Transmission Unit
(MTU). The MTU is the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes that a
network can transmit. Any messages larger than the MTU are divided into
smaller packets before being sent. Ideally, the MTU should be the same as the
smallest MTU of all the networks between your machine and the final
destination. If the MTU figure is too large packets will be broken up
(fragmented), which slows down transmission speeds, and in some cases
cause a 'Connection to Unit Timed Out' message when using DM Network
Viewing Software.
