3.5.2 No DHCP Server On The LAN (Static IP Addresses)
If there is no existing
DHCP server in the network
and no DHCP server is required, then
all network devices must have an IP address in the same range of addresses and use
the same subnet mask in order to communicate with one another. This also applies to
for the individual T24S units and their remote stations, which are to be integrated into
the existing network (LAN). For this reason, you must know the IP addresses and subnet
mask currently in use on the network.
A PC that is already configured to work on the network is necessary for configuration. The
MOBOTIX software MxEasy must be installed on this PC (free download from www.mobotix.
com). The initial configurationof the IP video door stations comprises the following steps:
1. Connect the T24S and remote stations to the LAN and to the power supply
2. Assign static IP addresses to videophones
3. Assign static IP address to operation PC (optional)
4. Install MxEasy on the host PC and assign static IP addresses to all T24S units
5. Select the Master T24S
6. Search and configure Grandstream IP telephones using MxEasy and the Master T24S
7. Set up door bell behavior using MxEasy – for each individual T24S
8. Configure modules (optional)
Step 1: Connect The T24S And Remote Stations To The LAN And To The Power Supply
Connect the T24S, the IP videophone and a PC, if not already done, with the router/switch
in the network. Ensure that the T24S units have a PoE power supply. If the switch or router
does not feature PoE, use MOBOTIX NPA-PoE Sets to supply the T24S units with power.
With this configuration, the NPA-PoE Sets are placed between the switch/router and each
T24S unit (see Section 2.7.4).
Step 2: Assign Static IP Addresses To Grandstream Videophones
Proceed as described under Step 2 in Section 3.3.2.
Step 3: Assign Static IP Address To Operation PC (Optional)
If this PC has not yet been added to the LAN, proceed as described under Step 3 in
Section 3.3.2.
Step 4: Install MxEasy On The Operation PC And Assign Static IP Addresses To All T24S Units
Install MxEasy on a PC and start the program. The MxEasy Assistant appears. Assign
all T24S units on the LAN with a static IP address one after the other (see Section 3.2.2).
