How to Find the IP Address for FLEX Device

How to Find the IP Address for FLEX Device

DHCP Device List from Router

This procedure is applicable only if you have administrative access (username and password) to a router with DHCP service (usually your Internet modem/gateway). Otherwise skip to the next section.

  1. Use two network cables to connect the Flex device and the PC to the local network (LAN) over a network switch or directly to the router which is running the DHCP service.
  2. Power the Flex device and note the MAC address to find the IP address in the next step.
  3. Open a browser window on your PC and log into the router which is running the DHCP service. Look for Diagnostics or Maintenance and find the link to show the issued DHCP addresses (on some routers called attached devices). Find the MAC address in the list to obtain the issued IP address. This IP address can be used to access the Flex device using a web browser and set the IP address permanently.
