1.5 Static IP Address
Each RadioPro IP Gateway
requires a static IP address
. The IP Gateway must have IP Network Parameters
configured using ICU.exe (IP Configuration Utility) before connecting to an active network. Contact the IT
administrator to provide a static IP Address for each RadioPro IP Gateway, along with its Subnet Mask and Default
Gateway.
1.6 Accessing the RadioPro IP Gateway using Port Forwarding
If RadioPro clients (such as Dispatch, Solo, Talk, or Talk for Mobile) will access an IP Gateway from a different IP
network, then the IT Administrator must configure port forwarding within the firewall or router(s) that separates the
RadioPro IP Gateway from the clients. This is also true when one or more of the clients listed above will connect to a
RadioPro IP Gateway from the Internet. See

1.7 Licensing
RadioPro Dispatch Clients
Each PC that runs the RadioPro Dispatch client requires a unique software license file to be imported during installation
of the software. The license file specifies the number of IP Gateways that a RadioPro Dispatch console can connect to,
as well as licensing for GPS and Text Messaging options. Connections for additional IP Gateways can be purchased
and added to the license file at any time.
RadioPro Solo and Talk clients for PC, and RadioPro Talk for Mobile apps
For client types other than RadioPro Dispatch, a license file is factory-installed in the IP Gateway, and allows
connections from Solo and Talk clients (for PCs and Notebooks) and Talk for Mobile apps (for Android™ and
iPhone™/iPad™). Solo, Talk, and Talk for Mobile licenses can be purchased when the IP Gateway is purchased, and
can easily be added to an IP Gateway that is already installed. The number of Solo, Talk, and Talk for Mobile licenses
on the license file is the maximum number of simultaneous connections from users of these client applications.
The number of Solo, Talk, and Talk for Mobile licenses installed on the IP Gateway is indicated on the serial number
label located on the bottom of the IP Gateway. It can also be determined using the ICU.exe utility. See
