IP address information
The default IP address for the Ethernet interface in the Machine Floor LAN is
192.168.1.111 (see device label).
The IP address of the web server in the common LAN is configured per default via
DHCP. Depending on the configuration of your local DHCP- and DNS-servers it is
possible to reach the device by this host name in your network.
The dataFEED edgeGate supports the network connection protocol UPnP (
Universal
Plug And Play)
for Windows 10. MAC, Linux und Android use Avahi/Zeroconf, the
Zero
Configuration
network implementation protocol which identifies the gateway as an
HTTPs server.
