Initial IP configuration
IP models of the AdderView CATx family possess a further collection of
configuration options related specifically to IP networking. It is important that
the options are correctly set up for your installation BEFORE being connected to
an open IP network.
To configure IP-specific settings
1 From a local user port (for security reasons, the IP configuration option
cannot be accessed from remote user ports), log on as ‘admin’ user.
2 Press
(hotkeys can be changed).
3 Press to select ‘More menus’.
4 Select ‘Functions’ and then select ‘Configure IP port’.
• If the unit is being configured for the first time or following a reset,
the unit will display the first of five screens, as shown opposite
ð
• If the unit has been previously
IP-configured it will display the
IP Configuration
menu, as
shown below
ò
See
Configure IP port
for details.
To use the initial IP-configuration sequence
Set the options in each screen and then select
Next
to proceed.
Admin password
Enter a password of at least six characters that has a mix
of letters and numerals. The background colour provides
an indication of password suitability and is initially red
to indicate that the password is not sufficient. When a
password with reasonable strength has been entered it
will change to green.
Time and Date
Set these correctly as all entries in the activity log are time
stamped using them.
Encryption
See
Encryption settings
for a description of the issues
and the settings.
Use DHCP/IP address/Net Mask/Gateway
You need to either set the DHCP option to ‘Yes’ or
manually enter a valid IP address, Net mask and Gateway.
See
Networking issues
for more details.
VNC and HTTP ports
These should remain set to 5900 and 80, respectively,
unless they clash with an existing setup within the
network. See
Networking issues
for more details.
Modem/ISDN port details
The default items here are perfectly adequate for
the majority of modem and ISDN terminal adapter
installations.
The Server IP and Client IP addresses are used to form an
isolated two-device PPP network connection via the dial
up link. Their settings are not related to any other ‘real’
network settings within the AdderView CATx IP unit.
Secure keys generation
With every mouse move and keypress, the single dash
will move across the screen (unless the same key is
pressed repeatedly). Periodically, a new star character will
be added to the bar as the random data are accepted
as part of the new encryption key. When the bar is full,
the final encryption keys for your AdderView CATx IP
will be created – this process takes roughly 30 to 40
seconds. Once the secure keys have been calculated the
AdderView CATx IP will show the IP configuration menu.
