MAC

The MAC address you want to assign to the W3100A.

The MAC address is a unique number that identifies your chip. You must use a different address for every W3100A chip in your network.

Example : 123.00.12.34.56.78

You need to specify 6 bytes that must be separated by dots. The bytes must be specified in decimal notation.

IP

The IP address you want to assign to the W3100A.

The IP address must be unique for every W3100A in your network. When you have a LAN, 192.168.0.10 can be used. 192.168.0.x is used for LAN’s since the address is not an assigned internet address.

SUBMASK

The submask you want to assign to the W3100A.

The submask is in most cases 255.255.255.0

GATEWAY

This is the gateway address of the W3100A.

The gateway address you can determine with the IPCONFIG command at the command prompt :
