IMPORTANT: Be sure to record your computer’s existing TCP/IP settings before the
next step so that you can return the computer to normal operation after this
procedure.
3. Configure your computer to 192.168.101.X. Do not use .1 at the end of the
address to avoid duplicate IP addresses.
4. Start a web browser and enter 192.168.101.1 as the web address. This is the
KUMO temporary static IP address.
5. Once you’ve connected using the static IP, you can then enter a desired
network configuration using the KUMO device’s NETWORK tab.
Network Configuration In Depth
A LAN is a shared network that includes other Ethernet devices all attached via
a hub or digital switch. LANs may be divided into zones separated by software
or hardware routers. Routers may also be used to connect the LAN to an
outside wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet. Devices on a LAN have IP
addresses which may be fixed and permanent, or dynamically assigned by the
network (DHCP with DNS server).
NOTE: Once connected and properly configured, the KUMO router can then be
controlled by a web browser or one or more KUMO CP control panels. KUMO and
KUMO CP are equipped with zeroconf (Bonjour) and support UPnP networking
protocols but initially start up as DHCP active devices. If you are operating on a
DHCP server, KUMO will take an assigned IP address and appear on the network.
Caution! When attaching KUMO to a standard static IP LAN, you must configure
KUMO components with a new, unique IP address. You should first talk to your
network administrator and find out how it should be connected (TCP/IP Static IP
or DHCP). Your IT department will be able to supply the information you need to
install KUMO on a LAN.
