KT-NCC Configuration
Pre-
Configuration
Before you register your KT-NCC to EntraPass Global Edition software and start configuring it, you must
verify the following:
•
Make sure that you are running version 3.17 or higher of EntraPass Global Edition software.
•
Define what type of connection your network architecture requires: LAN or WAN, DHCP or Static IP
address to the EntraPass server.
•
Once you have defined the type of connection you will be using, the System Administrator has to
provide you with the proper IP address information.
•
We suggest that you fill-out the detachable KT-NCC
Configuration Reference Sheet
with your
configuration information and keep the information close at hands. The sheet is located on the last
page of this document.
Configuration
Scenarios
Two types of network architectures exist: Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN).
Each of these types of architecture has various possible configurations.
LAN enables users to communicate, exchange data and share resources in an internal network. A local
network can be made up of a server and one or several KT-NCCs connected to the server through a hub
or switch. Whatever the case, an IP address has to be assigned so that the KT-NCCs and the EntraPass
server can communicate. When the EntraPass server is used, a static or DHCP address can be assigned
to establish the communication. When the customer server is used, the DHCP server assigns a dynamic
IP address.
WAN is generally deployed on a long geographic distance and connects two or several local networks.
The wide area network may use public networks to communicate and transmit data between the distant
networks.
In a WAN architecture, IP addresses can be reserved or the server could be left to assign IP addresses
automatically (DHCP).
Here is the definition of the different scenarios and the basic steps you will follow to configure your
system.
DHCP with
Customer
Server IP
Address (LAN)
You will use this type of configuration in an environment where the customer DHCP server will assign IP
addresses automatically for communication with the KT-NCC.
a Perform a hard reset (See instructions on page 23.)
b Connect your KT-NCC to the network (See instructions on page 24.)
c Register your KT-NCC to the EntraPass Global Edition network (See instructions on page 25.)
d Configure gateway parameters (See instructions on page 27.)
