For wired connections there are three operation modes: | For wired connections there are three operation modes: | ||
* Join existing network: Similar to the wireless connection, in this mode the device obtains an IP from the network connected to the management port. The Router or DHCP server in the network should list the Allegro Network Multimeter IP address. | * Join existing network: Similar to the wireless connection, in this mode the device obtains an IP address from the network connected to the management port.

* Manage own network: In this mode, the device will run a DHCP server on the management port enabling you to connect another computer via a cable to the system. Be aware that the network port should not be connected to the main network since running multiple DHCP servers will probably disturb the network. In this mode, the web interface can be accessed by entering the URL '''https://allegro/''' into a web browser. | * Manage own network: In this mode, the device will run a DHCP server on the management port enabling you to connect another computer via a cable to the system.

* Use static IP: It is also possible to configure a fixed IP address for the wired management port. You can enter any IP address for the port. The IP address must end with a slash followed by the subnet size. Example: /24 stands for a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Optionally you can enter the IP address of your gateway computer and the IP address of the DNS server. You can leave them empty if you want to directly connect the device to another computer with no Router involved. In this mode, the web interface can be reached by the static IP address you configured. | * Use static IP: It is also possible to configure a fixed IP address for the wired management port.
