Hi everyone,

I want to share my configuration that worked flawless:

First of all the ICOM should be configured this way:

ICOM Config

ConnectionMode = STATIC_IP
Ip = 192.168.68.85
Netmask = 255.255.255.0
Gateway = 192.168.68.99

DHCPSRV.INI

[SETTINGS]
IPPOOL_1=192.168.68.1-254
IPBIND_1=192.168.68.99
AssociateBindsToPools=1
Trace=1
DeleteOnRelease=0
ExpiredLeaseTimeout=3600

[GENERAL]
LEASETIME=86400
NODETYPE=8
SUBNETMASK=255.255.255.0
NEXTSERVER=192.168.68.99
ROUTER_0=192.168.68.1

[DNS-SETTINGS]
EnableDNS=0

[TFTP-SETTINGS]
EnableTFTP=0
ROOT=C:\Users\Osx\Desktop\DHCP\wwwroot
WritePermission=0

[HTTP-SETTINGS]
EnableHTTP=0
ROOT=C:\Users\Osx\Desktop\DHCP\wwwroot
[00-01-A9-00-EE-E9]
IPADDR=192.168.68.1
AutoConfig=06/26/2016 12:41:32
Hostname=ICOM1120134
LeaseEnd=1467070189

Windows Ethernet config:

"Use the following IP Address"
IP 192.168.68.99
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0


Hope this help

I don't understand why you got ICOM with static IP 192.168.68.85 and with DHCP 192.168.68.1 IP? So ICOM with static IP or DHCP? Can't be both. The static IP will take presidence. Since the ICOM address is 192.168.68.85 why is the ROUTER_0=192.168.68.1 (that would be IP for ICOM from DHCP, but since the ICOM got static IP it won't use DHCP IP)?

Hello,

Im not a tech expert, but the config has worked for a while without issues
Have you tried to work with the config?

Well I'm an IT tech, so those thing didn't look right to me. I assume we need the DHCP for control modules in the car not the laptop/ICOM itself. Laptop/ICOM won't be restarting during the update, so there is no need for them to get new IP's. Modules of the car will be restarting so I assume they need to get new IP's during update.

Would be nice to get a technical document that got some real information on what actually happens during update, so it would be easier to understand the best way to config system. I haven't tried that config, because I don't like to use something that doesn't seem right. I'm not trying to be a smart ass here, I just want to understand what is the best practice to avoid any issues with update.
