Enter BlueGate 1000’s Media Access Control (MAC) address from the label
on the bottom of BlueGate 1000.

3.

 

Click 

OK

 in the dialog box that returns the IP address. The internal home

page opens automatically in Internet Explorer.

 

In a non-DHCP (private network) environment (see section 5.2 for details about
