Reserving an IP address for Critical Labs Gateways

It is imperative that the IP address that a Critical Labs gateway utilizes remains the same. This is because in many cases, Modbus TCP and/or SNMP cards will only allow access to their protocol on a predefined IP address. If the gateway's IP address is able to communicate via one of these protocols, but it's IP changes, then it may not be able to communicate with that piece of equipment in the future.
