Configuration manual

In case more functionality is required, for example, internet access, the dynamic link‑local
addresses cannot be used. In this case the DICENTIS devices and PCs need to be connected
to a DHCP server and gateway to provide internet access. If the DICENTIS Conference System
will become part of a locally present network, contact your local IT department for how to set
up the network.
The DHCP server has to comply with RFC 4676 and must be able to handle 500 requests per
30 seconds. A consumer grade DHCP server as is used in most home router/wireless access
points is not able to comply with this requirement and will cause unexpected and unrequested
behavior.
The DHCP server functionality of Windows server does comply with these requirements.
The DICENTIS Conference System service uses ports 13 and 9710 for communication. Please
make sure that these ports are not used by any other applications on the DICENTIS server
computer.

Notice!
How to set up an Ethernet network is outside the scope of this manual.
