Device
Device Name: Set the name to be displayed on the top of each web page. 20 Character Max.
Status Name: Set the name displayed for the A and B switch status. 20 Character Max.
IP
IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway: Enter these values as provided by your network administrator.
IP Mode: Select the mode of acquiring the IP address.
Static Mode: Locks the IP address as shown above. When the IP number is Static, it can not be changed by
DHCP or ARP-PING methods. If the IP number is forgotten, use the IP-AB recovery tool. See Troubleshooting.
DHCP Mode:
Allows a DHCP server to assign IP address
APR-PING Mode: Allows setting of the IP address via ARP/Ping method or using the ipset.exe utility.
HTTP Port: To access IPC-1-R on a port other than the Web standard 80. If the port is changed, you will need
to identify the port number when you enter IPC-1-R's IP address into your browser: if the new port is 9100 then
use
http://192.168.1.254:9100
to access IPC-1-R.
Dataprobe recommends changing of the port from the default 80 to reduce the number of attacks from hackers.
SSL: The IPC-1-R can use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption to protect the username/password and data
between the browser and the switch. This is set Enabled by default. Disabling SSL will increase the response of
the unit.
Once you click Apply for any changes in this section, a reboot of the unit is required. A Reboot button will
appear on the bottom of the page. This will automatically reboot the IPC-1-R and redirect the browser to the new
address/port
AutoPing
This page sets the unit for automatic operation. AutoPing monitors one or two IP addresses and switches the
IPC-1-R based on the response or lack of response to the ping requests. See the section below on AutoPing for
complete details.
SNMP
SNMP Manager IP Address: Set the IP address of up to four SNMP managers that can send configuration
information and receive Traps from the IPC-1-R
Enable: Enable or Disable SNMP and set the actions that send Traps to the SNMP managers.
Passwords
Set the username and password for the Administrator and User functions. The Administrator has access to all
setup and operational functions. The User can view and change the status of the A/B switch, and reset the
AutoPing trigger count only. The Setup button is not visible to the User. Enter the new username and password.
If the passwords are lost, see Troubleshooting.
E-mail Services: Set the email parameters for generating email alerts to various activities. Set the POP and
SMTP server IP addresses, the Mail From and Mail To addresses as well as the username and password for the
SMTP and POP servers.
Notification Enable: Enable or Disable the e-mail generation for SNMP activities and switch changes via Web,
AutoPing and from the manual toggle switch.
