Default behavior regarding DNS
A DNS (Domain Name System) server is an Internet service that resolves domain names into IP
addresses. Name resolution is important when connecting to Remote Manager, as the servers are
provided as fully-qualified domain names.
XBee Industrial Gateway is capable of using up to three DNS servers. Up to two of these slots may be
filled with DNS servers from dynamic IP assignment sources, leaving at least one slot always available
for static DNS server configuration. A reasonable default is supplied for one static DNS server, but this
default may not be appropriate for all customer networks.
Firewalls and required open ports
When you use a firewall to filter outbound traffic, XBee Industrial Gateway requires these network
ports to be open for proper operation:
n
UDP port 53 , for DNS
n
UDP port 123 , for NTP
n
TCP port 3199 , for Remote Manager
Deploying devices over a network
If deploying one to many XBee Industrial Gateway devices over a network, consider the network's
topology and behavior: Does the network's setup and any configuration in place present any barriers
to connectivity given the default behaviors listed above? Considerations for each supported network
type are in the following configuration settings topics. If you have a network that does not match the
default behaviors for supported network types stated below, you need to adjust settings as described
in
Configure XBee Industrial Gateway .
Connect the XBee nodes to XBee Industrial Gateway
This section explains how to configure the parameters for forming XBee networks on both XBee
Industrial Gateway and XBee nodes. To connect XBee nodes to XBee Industrial Gateway:
1. Before you begin, download XCTU from www.digi.com/xctu . XCTU allows you to configure XBee
RF modules.
2. Configure XBee Industrial Gateway as a coordinator .
3. Join nodes to the coordinator .
4. Verify that XBee nodes are joined to the coordinator .
If you are unfamiliar with XBee networks, see XBee/XBee-PRO ZigBee RF Modules User Guide for
information about the key concepts.
Configure XBee Industrial Gateway as a coordinator
The first device to configure with a custom PAN ID is the coordinator, which in this case is XBee
Industrial Gateway. To change the PAN ID of your XBee Industrial Gateway:
1. From a web browser, open the Home page of your XBee Industrial Gateway ZigBee and go to
the XBee Network section from the left menu.
2. Select the local XBee device for XBee Industrial Gateway. The XBee Configuration page
appears.
