Note
All Teldat devices are delivered with the same username and password. This means they are not pro-
tected against unauthorized use as long as the password remains unchanged. Make sure you change
said password to stop your device from being unduly accessed!
Section
on page 10 describes how to change your password.
3.1.2 Software update
Your device contains the system software version that was available at the time of production. Since then, more re-
cent versions may have been released. You can easily update your device using GUI through the
Maintenance-
>Software &Configuration
menu.
Section
on page 11 describes the updating process.
3.2 System requirements
Your PC must meet the following system requirements for configuration purposes:
• Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.
• Installed network card (Ethernet).
• TCP/IP protocol installed (see
on page 8).
3.3 Preparation
To get ready for configuration, you need to...
• Obtain the data required for the basic configuration.
• Check whether the PC you need to use for configuration purposes meets the necessary requirements.
• Install the Dime Manager software, which gives you more tools to work with your device.
3.3.1 Gathering data
The main data for the basic configuration can be gathered quickly, as no information is required that needs in-depth
network knowledge. If applicable, you can use the example values.
Before starting the configuration process, you should gather data for the following purposes:
• IP configuration (mandatory if your device is in the ex works state).
• Configuration of a wireless network connection in Access Point mode (optional).
The following table gives examples of possible values for the necessary data. You can enter your personal data in
the "Your values" column, for future consideration.
If you configure a new network, you can use the values for IP addresses and netmasks that appear in the example.
When in doubt, ask your system administrator.
