Configuration of IP address
When ML Gateway is delivered, the IP address is set to a static value. The IP address for ML Gateway is
192.168.1.10
(
factory default).
Depending on the customer’s network settings, it may be necessary to change the IP address in order to fit the network range. Follow the
procedure below:
- The first step is to determine the network setup in the installation (IP address range, DHCP/non-DHCP). To do this it is necessary to access the
customer’s router.
- Connect the ML Gateway with an ethernet patch cable to a computer with ethernet connection and web browser. On older computer models, it
might be necessary to use a cross-wired ethernet patch cable.
- Set the IP address on the computer to a static value in the same IP address range as the default value, eg. 192.168.1.11, and the subnet mask to
255.255.255.0 (for information about how to access settings, refer to the desired OS below):
