====DHCP====
The Valt Keypad will automatically pull an IP address from DHCP. The IP address can be obtained by reviewing DHCP leases on the associated DHCP server. The hostname of the device is Keypad.

====Static====
If no DHCP server is available, the Valt Keypad will default to a static IP address of 192.168.0.92.
====Manual====
The IP address from the keypad may also be obtained directly by plugging in a keyboard and running the following command from the console:
<pre>ifconfig | more</pre>

The IP address will be listed under interface '''eth0'''.

===Manually Setting an IP Address===
In order to set the IP address manually, connect to the Keypad using the ivsadmin user. The ivsuser account cannot change any settings. If connecting from the console, type the following to change accounts. There will be prompt for the ivsadmin password. <pre>su ivsadmin</pre>
# Type the following, and press Enter: <pre>sudo nano /etc/dhcpcd.conf</pre>
# Scroll down until to the section for interface '''eth0'''.
# Remove the '''#''' at the start of the lines for static IP, static routers, and static domain_name_servers.
# Update the IP configuration to reflect the correct settings for the environment.
