Initial Connection and Setup
The ProHD BR-DE800 Decoder is configured, by default, to use a fixed static IP address for
its streaming port (labeled "Ethernet"). Use the default
192.168.1.2
IP address to
perform initial login from a computer connected directly to the platform.
The ProHD BR-DE800 Decoder is configured using a menu-based configuration utility that
is accessed over IP using either Telnet or SSH. In order to comply with various IT security
requirements – Telnet connectivity can be disabled/enabled by using the unit’s
configuration utility. The SSH interface requires a security file to be used. This file is
located on the product’s CD.
Both the Telnet and the SSH interfaces are password protected. The password is
user-configurable. The Telnet interface presents a fixed password prompt prior to
presenting the user-configurable password prompt.
