| In this mode, Netzer selects an IP address from AutoIP area 169.254.1.0 - 169.254.254.255 directly upon restart. The subnetwork mask is 255.255.0.0, a gateway address is not provided. Selection and provision of the AutoIP address is done following the [[wp>Zeroconf]] protocol. This guarantees tha the IP address is well-defined in the network. | In this mode, Netzer selects an IP address from AutoIP area 169.254.1.0 - 169.254.254.255 directly upon restart.

| - | In AutoIP mode, the IP address has a minor role. Accordingly, the IP address actually used is not very easy to determine (exception: [[spislave|SPI Slave mode]]). Instead, other mechanisms are used to access devices in such a network, e.g. via the name of the device. | + | In AutoIP mode, the IP address has a minor role.
