The CAEN VME crate now gets its IP address from the ds-proto-daq DHCP server. To do this, I set the IP address of the crate to 0.0.0.0 (using the front panel interface) then reset the crate (not just a power cycle - pressing the reset button is required).

I am now able to ping the crate, but am NOT able to load the webpage it is supposed to serve (I just get a "connection refused"). I can't see any configuration settings that would disable the webpage or would cause it to be served on a non-standard port. I may have missed something though.
