XT-3305 Encrypted Ethernet Tunnel
Quick Start Guide
This document guides the new user through configuration of two XT-3305 encrypted tunnels and
demonstrates tunneling encrypted data between two LAN segments by configuring a pair of units
as the Server and a Client. Connect two PCs through two XT-3305 units with a simulated
network between them, as diagrammed in Figure 1 below.

Requirements
1. Two XT-3305 units and knowledge of basic TCP/IP networking
2. One PC (preferably two) with wired Ethernet connections and any modern web browser
Step-by-Step Procedure
1:
Open the first box and note the contents: The XT encrypted tunnel, Power Adapter, CDROM
containing manual and Application Notes, two Black Straight-through Ethernet cables with RJ-
45 connectors and 9-pin Female-to-Female Null Modem cable.
2:
Configure a PC for use on the default LAN1 subnet of the XT-3305. Use the IP address
192.168.0.100 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. This will be PC “A”.
3:
Power up the first XT-3305, (XT-3305 “A”) to be configured as the Server unit.
