Switching to Internet
WARNING! The user is strongly recommended to connect the unit to Internet under the supervision of the LAN system
administrator and/or representative of Internet service provider.
Use the following guidelines to connect the unit to Internet:
acquire a dedicated line with a static IP-address from your Internet Service Provider (hereinafter referred to as – ISP);
several connection options are possible if your ISP binds the connection to MAC-address, and the given Internet connection was already
used by personal computers or other units:
a) connect the unit directly to the PC (see Section 5.2.1) to learn the MAC-address of the unit (see Section 7). Inform the ISP on the change of
MAC-address to the MAC-address of the unit;
b) determine the MAC-address for Internet connection from the unit settings, which was previously using this connection, or acquire it from your
ISP. Connect the unit directly to the PC and change the parameters "Enable manual MAC-address" and "Manually set MAC-address" to
have the manual MAC-address enabled and values of the unit correspond to MAC- address with an Internet connection binded;
direct connection of the unit to the ISP cable is not recommended; in case of a router connection, the ISP cable is connected to the "Uplink"
socket on the router (It is usually marked with color and has no numbers. The marking depends on the router manufacturer, see the router
documentation). The straight-through (supplied) Ethernet cable is used for connecting unit to the router. Set the router for Internet
connection as per ISP recommendations using the router documentation. The router settings should also provide for the redirection of
requests, which are coming to static IP-address provided by the ISP, to the unit IP-address (factory setting - 192.168.0.111);
verify if the Internet connection is protected by standard means (see below);
when referring the unit via Internet, use IP-address provided by your ISP.
