Network menu
The Network menu comprises the sub-menus Settings, DNS, UPnP, GSM & SMS,
and Cameras.
Settings
In the Network menu, you can define the IP address of the LUPUSEC-XT2. We
recommend the default setting “Receive IP address automatically (DCHP)”, if your
network includes a router. Thus, the router provides the alarm system automatically
with a matching address.
As an alternative, you can define the network settings manually. For this purpose,
click on “Use following IP address”.
DNS Flush Period: You can regularly delete the stored DNS addresses and get new
IPs from XMPP and Upload. (Please leave this function deactivated).
DNS
In the DNS menu, you can assign a host name to your public IP. Since your provider
(e.g. Telekom) assigns a new IP address to your router every 24 hours, you need a
DNS host name that is linked to your current IP address. LUPUS offers its own free
DNS service. Just use your personal login to the LUPUS-Electronics website in “My
Account”. Refer to the end of this manual for more detailed information on the
service.
