Field
Example
Description

Address assignment

Static or DHCP

Determines whether the router's LAN address is entered manually or assigned by another DHCP server.

LAN IP address

192.168.0.1

Address used by the Hera 604 on the local network. Operators normally use this address to open the router interface.

Net mask

255.255.255.0

Defines which IP addresses belong to the local subnet.

Static address assignment

Select Static when the Hera 604 must use a fixed LAN address.

  1. Set Address assignment to Static.

  2. Enter the LAN IP address defined for the installation.

  3. Enter the Net mask.

  4. Select Save.

  5. If the address changed, reconnect to the router using the new LAN IP address.

DHCP address assignment

Select DHCP when another DHCP server on the local network will assign the Hera 604 LAN address.

  1. Set Address assignment to DHCP.

  2. Select Save.

  3. Open Status (read only) after the address has been assigned to view the current LAN IP address and net mask.

Important: A DHCP-assigned LAN address can change. Confirm how operators will find the router's current address before using this option.

DHCP server

The Hera 604 DHCP server can automatically assign IP settings to devices on the local network.

Open Basic Settings > Local Area Network (LAN) > DHCP server.

Field
Example
Description

DHCP server

Enabled or Disabled

Enables or disables automatic IP address allocation on the LAN.

Start address

First host number in the DHCP allocation range. With LAN prefix 192.168.0, this example begins at 192.168.0.20.

End address

219

Last host number in the DHCP allocation range. With LAN prefix 192.168.0, this example ends at 192.168.0.219.

Note: Keep fixed addresses used by infrastructure or field equipment outside the automatic DHCP range, unless you create a matching fixed-host reservation.

Select Save after configuring the range.

DHCP fixed hosts

Use DHCP fixed hosts to ensure that a device receives the same IP address whenever it connects using DHCP.

Open Basic Settings > Local Area Network (LAN) > DHCP fixed hosts, then select Create.

Field
