You can create the file in either of the following ways. #### Creating the file by acquiring the information from the connected network interfaces
| Select Batch Settings from the Tools menu.
| Select Overwrite and Save from the File menu.
| Enter a name of the file, then save the file as SYLK file (*.slk).
| Open the SYLK file (*.slk) in the spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Office Excel.
| Change the setting values, or enter the setting information of the network interfaces by adding new rows.
| Save the file.
#### Creating files from the template for the setting information file
| Select Batch Settings from the Tools menu.
| Click Save Template File.
| Select the template file containing the setting values.
| Enter a name for the file, and then save the file as a SYLK file (*.slk).
| Open the SYLK file (*.slk) in spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Office Excel.
| Enter the values for each item. If you do not want to set a value, enter "#NULL#".
| Save the file.
#### Creating a new file The following instructions explain the steps to assign the IP addresses to the multiple network interfaces.
| Start the spreadsheet software.
| Enter “Info_MACAddress”, “Info_ModelName”, and “TCPIP_IPAddress” in the first row as the setting item names.
Note:
Enter the setting item name as described below; otherwise, EpsonNet Config cannot recognize the setting items.
Info_MACAddress | Info_ModelName | TCPIP_IPAddress
| Enter the MAC address, model name, and IP address of each network interface.
Info_MACAddress | Info_ModelName | TCPIP_IPAddress
0000XXXX0001 | ALC-XXXXX | 192.168.100.102
0000XXXX0002 | ALC-XXXXX | 192.168.100.103
| Save the file as SYLK file (*.slk).
### Making the batch settings by importing the setting file
| Start EpsonNet Config, then click the Batch Settings button.
| Click Open.
| Select the SYLK file containing the setting values, then click Open.

Enter the password if required, then click OK.
| Click OK.
| Confirm the status of the network interfaces.
Item | Status | Process Status | Explanation
| Setup Complete | Setup Successful | The setup is successfully completed.
| Setup Complete | Rebooting | The network interfaces need to reboot after transmitting the settings. Confirming the connections to the network interfaces.
| Setup Complete | Reboot Failed | Cannot confirm the connections to the network interfaces. Confirm the network interfaces are turned on or successfully rebooted.
| Setup Complete | Searching | Searching the network interfaces included in the setting file. *
| Setup Complete | Search Failed | Cannot confirm the connections to the network interfaces. Confirm the network interfaces are turned on or successfully rebooted. *
* Only when Display Setting Information is selected. Top ## Assigning the IP Address Manually You can assign the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway to each network interface. ### Creating the file containing the setting values
| Start the spreadsheet software.
| Enter “TCPIP_IPAddressAuto”, “TCPIP_IPAddress”, “TCPIP_SubnetMask”, and “TCPIP_Gateway” in the first row as the setting item names.
Note:
Enter the setting item name as described below; otherwise, EpsonNet Config cannot recognize the setting items.
TCPIP_IPAddressAuto | TCPIP_IPAddress | TCPIP_SubnetMask | TCPIP_Gateway
| Enter the values in each column.
TCPIP_IPAddressAuto specifies the setting method for assigning the IP address. If the setting value is “5”, the static IP address is manually assigned.
TCPIP_IPAddressAuto | TCPIP_IPAddress | TCPIP_SubnetMask | TCPIP_Gateway
5 | 192.168.100.102 | 255.255.255.0 | 192.168.100.101
5 | 192.168.100.103 | 255.255.255.0 | 192.168.100.101
5 | 192.168.100.104 | 255.255.255.0 | 192.168.100.101
