XWEB 3000 – rel.1.3–
2.1.7 REMOTE CONNECTION FROM A CLIENT PC
2.1.7.1 MODEM CONNECTION (“OR POINT TO POINT CONNECTION”)
It represents the most common method where the LAN (intranet / Ethernet / internet) is not available.
It is strongly advised to use a dedicated telephone line.
IMPORTANT:
Use exclusively modem devices approved by Dixell.
Remember that many modems are not compatible with Linux. The list of compatible models
can be found under the menu: Configuration – System - Modem. In appendix E, you can
find the complete list of accessories together with their commercial name. Dixell can provide you these
modems. You can decide to buy them in your country, but do not use different models from the ones
stated here. Dixell is not responsible for any action depending on a modem that is not present in the
official list of supported accessories.
USB Modem
(recommended).
Connect the USB Modem to the USB Port on the back side using the modem cable commonly
included into the modem packaging itself.
There is no need to give power supply to the modem because the Server provides it through the USB
port.
The modem reset is directly controlled by the XWEB 3000 Server through the USB port by turning off
and then on the modem device.
Connect the modem to the telephone line with the phone cable included into the modem packaging.
Remember to check if there is a switching machine.
The connection procedure is divided in two parts:
In the first part it is necessary to create the Remote Access, in your remote PC, set with the telephone
number of the line where the XWEB 3000 is connected to. You have to use Dixell as Username and
Password.
The second is the procedure you will ever use: after launching the new Remote Access that will
engage the line through the modem, start the Browser from your PC and insert the address
http://192.168.1.200
into Explorer/Netscape address bar. Proper information about setting up a dial-
up connection for the client PC, can be found inside the INSTALLATION MANUAL on §5.1.
2.1.7.2 INTRANET / ETHERNET CONNECTION
The Intranet or Ethernet connection should be initially managed by the net administrator which will
assign one free IP address to reach the Server. This number is an example of what you should expect:
