What is an IP address?
An IP address is used in computer networks, for example the Internet, to transport data
from the transmitting party to any intended recipient. Similar to a postal address on an
envelope, the data packages are provided with an IP address which uniquely identifies
the recipient. Every device is assigned with at least one IP address in an IP based
computer network.
Why does the Gateway need an IP address?
The Gateway features a network connection. This is why it also requires an IP address
for communication.
The IP addresses and further specifications must correspond with one
another
in the Intrusion Alarm Panel and in WIN-PC
.
